What is the area surrounding the atom where electrons are located?
Its called the electron shell. Electrons will always fill up low orbitals first in the shell, an then as more energy is added to the atom, the electrons move up an orbit, then release the energy in some form, and they move back down to the lowest energy orbit.
A low energy electromagnetic wave would also have?
the lowest frequency Lester was here
What is the lowest energy level?
1. Atoms do not have energy levels unlike particles like electrons etc.2. The lowest energy for atoms will be 0 at absolute zero temp of 0 deg Kelvin.3. For electrons in all atoms lowest energy is that of 2 electrons nearest to the nucleus.
Which visible color has the least amount of energy?
The colors of the spectrum going from lowest energy to highest energy are violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red.
Where does the bob have the highest potential energy?
-- If you're talking about a pendulum, then the potential energy is highest and kinetic energy is zero at the ends of the swing, and potential energy is lowest and kinetic energy is highest in the middle of the swing. -- If you're not talking about a pendulum, then the preceding may be completely wrong.
What is the lowest level to allow f orbitals?
the lowest energy level to allow f orbitals is the fourth energy level
Which is the lowest energy level that contains d orbitals?
The lowest energy level that has F orbitals is the fourth energy level. The Atomic orbital of any atom only contains 2 electrons.
What is the lowest level having f orbital?
The lowest energy level that has F orbitals is the fourth energy level. The Atomic orbital of any atom only contains 2 electrons.
What is the energy level and orbital for K?
Assuming K stands for potassium, an element with 19 electrons, the electron configuration is as follows: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s13p64s1 The electron configuration shows the orbitals is order of energy level. The 4s orbital being at the highest energy level and the 1s orbital being at the lowest energy level. As 2px, 2py and 2pz exist, there are three 2p orbitals that occur at the p level, allowing the element to carry 6 electrons, 2 in each orbital. There is a specific order in listing the orbitals
Which is the lowest energy that can have a s orbital?
Each main energy level (1 to 7) has at least an s-orbital, p-orbitals are possible from the second level onwards (2 to 7) d-orbitals from 4th level f-orbitals from 6th level
Why does 4s orbital start filling while 3p orbital is empty?
The electrons fill in the lowest energy orbital that is available. Electrons in the 4s orbital have a lower energy level than electrons in the 3p orbital, so the 4s orbitals are filled with electrons first.
What is energy of electron when it is closest to the nucleus?
The energy level closest to the nucleus is the 1s orbital and can hold 2 electrons as do all s orbitals. Every electron orbital has a distinct shape and number. The 1s orbital has the same shape the 2s orbital and the 3s orbital and so forth. There are other orbital shapes such as p, d, and f. Regardless of the number or level of the orbital, all p orbitals are the same shape and all d orbitals are the same shape. Orbitals differ in distance from the nucleus and the distance is indicated by the number before the orbital shape.
What is the lowest energy level that has f orbital?
3 answer for apex
What do you mean by the orbitals of lower energy are filled in first with the electron and only then the orbitals of high energy are filled?
Because the electrons have a negative charge and the nucleus has a positive charge, so they attract each other. The electrons stay in the orbital closest to the nucleus unless it is full or they have enough energy to move away from the nucleus.
Must Electrons must fill the higher energy levels before they fill the lower energy levels?
No, according to Hund's rule the electrons fill the lowest orbital first and foremost and then go on to fill higher orbitals.
What is the lowest energy level that can have a d orbital?
3d
Which the lowest energy level that can have a p orbital?
2p
