No, it doesn't have a complete octet. Phosphorous is in group 5A, meaning it has 5 valence electrons (5 electrons on its outest shell).
There are 5, it is in group 5 on the periodic table of the elements
Yes, phosphorus is paramagnetic. This is because it has unpaired electrons in its outer shell, which results in a net magnetic moment.
The atomic number of phosphorus is 15.its electronic configuration is 2,8,5.outermost shell has 5 electrons. it can accommodate 3 more electrons to complete its octet.so its valency is 3. and it has 5 electrons on its valence shell.
Phosphorus has 3 shells. The outer shell contains 5 electrons. The electronic configuration is :- 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p3
Not by itself, no (that is, hydrogen is not a noble gas). A neutral hydrogen atom starts out with 1 electron, but it needs 2 electrons to fill its shell. Therefore, a hydrogen atom will often form 1 covalent bond with another atom, in order to gain that 1 extra electron it needs to fill its shell. Important note: Most elements need 8 electrons to get a full shell, but hydrogen is the exception: it only needs 2 electrons to get a full shell.
There are 5, it is in group 5 on the periodic table of the elements
Phosphorus (P) has 5 electrons in its outer shell. In PCl5, phosphorus is surrounded by 5 chlorine atoms, each contributing 1 electron to form a covalent bond with phosphorus. Therefore, in the compound PCl5, phosphorus has a total of 10 electrons in its outer shell.
the energy levels are as follows: first shell 2 second shell 8 third shell 5
Phosphorus has 10 more electrons. A neutral atom of phosphorus has 15 electrons, 3 in the outer 3p shell There are 5 electrons in a neutral atom of boron, 1 in the outer 2p shell.
There are 5 electrons in outer most shell of phosphorus it belongs to v group of periodic table.5.its atomic number is 15
Yes, phosphorus is paramagnetic. This is because it has unpaired electrons in its outer shell, which results in a net magnetic moment.
Yes, phosphorus is paramagnetic. This means that it contains unpaired electrons in its outer shell, which causes it to be attracted to a magnetic field.
5 because it is in group 5 on the periodic table
A covalent bond will form between phosphorus and iodine. Phosphorus and iodine are both nonmetals, so they share electrons in order to complete their outer electron shell and achieve stability.
No. It has one electron which is readily lost to produce the Na+ ion. Note - the ONLY elements with a complete outer shell are the noble gasses.
Metalloids do not have a complete outer shell, as they have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals. They typically have three, five, or six electrons in their outer shell, which gives them characteristics of both metal and nonmetal elements.
Iodine has 7 electrons in its outer most shell. It completes its valence shell by obtaining one electron to form iodide ion.
