When atoms share electrons to fill their outermost energy levels they form?
Covalent Bonds. :)
What is an electron in the outermost energy level of an atom?
An electron in the outermost energy level of an atom is called a valence electron.(We refer here to the outermost occupied levels of an atom. There are, of course, many other higher energy levels normally available that are not occupied.)These electrons determine the chemical reactivity of the atom.the valence electrons
How many electrons do beryllium and magnesium have in there outer energy levels?
Beryllium and magnesium have two electrons in their outermost energy level, as do all Group 2 elements.
What element is responsible for life it has 2 electron energy levels and 4 electrons available for bonding in the outermost energy level?
Carbon
How are principle energy levels and energy sub levels related?
Principal energy levels are an atom's major energy levels, ranging in value from 1 to 7. Energy sublevels are contained within principal energy levels, and their number increases as the value of the principal energy level increases.
What are the valence electrons in an atom?
located in the outermost energy levels.
Electrons are those found in the outermost energy level of an atom?
Electrons are those found in the outermost energy level of an atom?They are called valence electrons.
How many electrons does Arsenic have in each of its energy levels?
arsenic belongs to V-A group of periodic table it has 5 electrons in its outermost energy level.
Why do group 2 metals form ions with a 2 charges?
These metal may lose two electrons.
When atoms share electrons to fill their outermost energy levels they form?
Covalent Bonds. :)
Is it true that there is only one family that does NOT need electrons to fill their outermost energy levels?
no!

There are, of course, many other higher energy levels normally available that are not occupied.)These electrons determine the chemical reactivity of the atom.the valence electrons
What element has 2 electron energy levels and 4 electrons available for bonding in the outermost energy level?
The element carbon
Where are the valance atoms in an atom?
Valence electrons are the outermost electrons in an atom. They are located in the outer energy levels or orbitals, specifically in the highest principal energy level. These valence electrons are involved in chemical bonding and determining the atom's reactivity.
How many electrons do beryllium and magnesium have in there outer energy levels?
Beryllium and magnesium have two electrons in their outermost energy level, as do all Group 2 elements.
What element is responsible for life it has 2 electron energy levels and 4 electrons available for bonding in the outermost energy level?
Carbon
Do metals and non metals become more chemically stable when they fill or empty their outermost energy levels?
When they fill their outermost energy levels. Metals will WANT more electrons and Non-Metals will have EXTRA electrons to give. So in a way, Metals will actually fill their outermost energy levels while Non-Metals will empty them; all with the goal of having a FULL valency shell which is stable. This is the basis for ionic bonding.
