The overall of an atom is a nucleus (protons and neutrons), and 1 or 2 electrons. The rest are for large atoms: an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons.
In a Carbon atom there are two electron shells. The first shell can only hold two electrons therefore it is full ( 2 electrons in the first shell) and in the next shell there are 4 electrons. Remember: 2 e- in the first shell only up to 8 e- in the second and third shells. ("e-" usually short form for "electronsnegative charge") and some other thing to keep in mind are: Atomic # = the number of protons and the total number of electrons Atomic mass # = protons + neutrons (labled proton = p+ and neutron n0) So, Carbon is #6 on the Periodic Table of Elements therefore has 6 protons in its nucleus and 6 total electrons around it. Hope this was useful!!!! ;)
Elements having electrons in their third valence shell can be found in the third row of the periodic table (elements 11-18).
Chlorine has 17 electrons, distributed in the following way: 2 in first shell 8 in second shell 7 in third (outer) shell Therefore Chlorine has 7 electrons in its outer shell.
The first shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 while the third shell can also hold a maximum of 8.
Carbon has two electrons in its inner shell and four in its outer shell.
inner shell electrons : the electrons that are not in the the highest occupied energy level .
Having 6 protons, the neutral atom of carbon also has 6 electrons.
inner-shell electrons
Germanium has 18 inner shell electrons.
there are 2 electrons in the inner shell of a hydrogen atom.
In nitrogen, the inner shell consists of two electrons, which fill the 1s orbital.
Yes, Lithium has the Atomic Number 3, therefore has 3 electrons. The inner 'shell' of electrons only needs 2 electrons to be full. The Li+ ion also has a full inner shell.
The very inner shell of an atom is the 1st shell and can only contain 2 electrons.
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom. The ones in the inner shell are known as core electrons.
Cl is in the 17 group. It is in the 3rd period. It has 3 energy levels.
carbon has totally six electrons. Out of these, four electrons are in the valence shell or the outer most shell.
