The shell model explains the organization of the periodic table.
The elements in the first period have electrons in the first shell; the elements in the second period have electrons in the first two shells; the elements in the third period have electrons in the first three shells; and so on.

How many electrons are in the outer shell of phosphorus?
There are 5, it is in group 5 on the periodic table of the elements
What stays the same as you move across a period on the periodic table?
The energy of the valence shell remains the same.
Why is lathanide and actinide not part of the periodic table?
Besides the periodic table, an electron chart of the elements exists. The periodic table shows the broad outline. The electron chart goes into greater detail. The periodic table lists elements according to electrons in their outer shell. As elements get more massive they get more protons and electrons. Each time they add a proton, they jump one notch in the periodic table. When they add the electron, it is a valence electron and it affects the chemical properties. There comes a point when elements start adding electrons when the electrons are not added to the outer shell with the other electrons in the valence shell. The chemical properties do not change as the elements get heavier. It is extremely difficult to use chemistry to separate the elements in that group. If you had an electron chart, you would see the electrons followed a different pattern. That is why the lanthanides and actinides are set apart from the other elements on the periodic table. According to their chemical properties, they would all need to be put into one box.
Is snow on the periodic table?
No, it is not on the periodic table.
What family does nitrogen belongs to?
On the periodic table, the family nitrogen belongs to is Group Vb. In their outer electronic shell, each of the elements within this group have five electrons.
Why is Mendeleev periodic table considered a scientific model?
it could be used to explain the behavior of all of the elements.
Why is Mendeleev's periodic table considered a viable scientific model?
it could be used to explain the behavior of all of the elements.
What is unreactive and has a full shell on the periodic table?
A noble gas is usually unreactive and has a filled valance electron shell. They are located in group 18 on the periodic table.
What is the outer shell of first row of periodic table?
K shell (or 1s orbital).
How does atomic number explain the arrangement of the periodic table?
According to the modern periodic table "Elements are the periodic function of their atomic number".They are arranged in increasing atomic no. in the periodic table.
What is group in periodic table?
In the periodic table, group indicates the number of valence electrons in the outermost shell. E.g. Group I- the elements in that group have one valence electron in the outermost shell.
What kind of shell does the first period in the periodic table have?
The first period of the periodic table's elements all have 1 energy level.
Table of periodic elements?
See the link below fot the IUPAC model of the periodic table of elements.
The organization of the periodic table is based on what?
The Periodic Table is organized by Atomic Number (the number of protons) and the Electron Shell capacity (the number of electrons).
Where on the Periodic Table are atoms with 8 outer shell electrons located?
a
What is a group in the periodic table called?
the vertical column is called group in the periodic table.
Some say the periodic table is read like a book Explain how you read the periodic table and how this can give you information about elements in the table?
you read it from left to right
