Why are the nuclear structures of the actinides more important than the electron configuration's of the actinides?

Because the nuclei of actinides are unstable and spontaneously break apart, all actinides are radioactive.

Why are lanthanides in period six and actinides in period 7?
Lanthanides have 6 electron shells. Actinides have 7 electron shells.
How do you write out the electron configurations of solutions?
Solutions are mixtures of one or more solutes dissolved in a solvent. They do not have electron configurations. Only atoms and ions have electron configurations.
Why is electron spin important when writing election configurations?
because of Hund-Mulliken theory rules
Why is silver a transition metal?
Yes Silver (Ag) has atomic number 47. It is in column 11 (IB) Those elements in the middle of the chart, as well as the Lanthanides and Actinides are considered Transition Elements (metals).
How are noble gas configurations different from electron configurations?
The externall shell of electrons is completely filled.

What are the examples of elements with predictable electron configurations?
All of the representative elements (s and p block) have predictable electron configurations. However, many of the transition elements have electron configurations that are not predicted by the rules for determining electron configuration.

Yes Silver (Ag) has atomic number 47. It is in column 11 (IB) Those elements in the middle of the chart, as well as the Lanthanides and Actinides are considered Transition Elements (metals).
The elements Li and F combine to form an ionic compound The electron configurations in this compound are the same as the electron configurations of atoms in which group?
Group 18
What have stable electron configurations?
any time there are as many electrons and protons and they fill each orbital optimally.
How are noble gas configurations different from electron configurations?
The externall shell of electrons is completely filled.
What are the full electron configurations for strontium Z 38?
The electron configuration of strontium is 1s22s22p63s23p63d104s24p65s2.
Which elements have electron configurations that end in ns2np5?
halogens
Why is periodicity an important concept?
Periodicity reflects the properties of elements and represents similar electron configurations. Just took the test and got a 100% :)
