What is the maximum number of electrons in the first shell?
2 electrons are found in the first electron shell.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the 6s subshell?
6th energy level can hold 72 electrons. (has s,p,d,f,g, and h subshells)
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy an f energy sublevel?
The f-suborbitals begin to be filled with the lanthanoids (atomic number 57-71). Each f-suborbital can hold a maximum of 14 electrons.
What is the highest sub level electron occupy in uranium 238?
The highest sub level electrons occupy in a Uranium-238 atom is a f-sub level.
How are electrons placed into an orbital shell?
Electrons enter the orbitals on the basis of increasing energy of sub-shells. Also, when an electron occupies an orbital another electron cannot occupy that orbital until all other orbitals of that sub-shell have atleast 1 electron.
How many electron are occupy in energy sub level?
there is a maximum of 6 electrons in the 'p'sublevel
What is the maximum number of electrons in the first shell?
2 electrons are found in the first electron shell.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the 6s subshell?
6th energy level can hold 72 electrons. (has s,p,d,f,g, and h subshells)
What is the Maximum number of electrons for energy level 7?
Atoms with atomic no. this much large have not been discovered so that their electron may occupy a place in 7th energy level. But for your convenience, it is 98. Put n=7 in the formula 2n2 to get the result
What is maximum number of electrons that may occupy the third electron energy level?
The third energy level contains s,p, and d subshells. These subshells hold 2,6, and 10 electrons respectively. Thus, in total the third energy level can hold 18 electrons.
How many electrons occupy the outermost energy level of an atom?
The answer to this depends on the energy level under consideration.In general, the maximum number of electrons occupied in one energy level is given by 2n2where n is the number of energy level. Thus 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th energy levels can occupy a maximum of 2, 8, 18 and 32 electrons
Is 4 the maximum number of electrons that can occupy energy level 4?
No. Its 32 because the formula is 2n^2
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy orbital?
6
Why do electrons occupy equal energy orbital singly before beginning to pair up in twos?
They do this before pairing up because of Hund's rule which says that the electrons occupy orbitals that have the same energy in a way that makes the number of electrons with the same spin direction as big as possible.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy one orbit?
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
What is the maximum of electrons that can occupy one orbital?
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
How many electrons does the outermost energy level contain?
The answer to this depends on the energy level under consideration.In general, the maximum number of electrons occupied in one energy level is given by 2n2where n is the number of energy level. Thus 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th energy levels can occupy a maximum of 2, 8, 18 and 32 electrons
