Subshell letters indicate electron shells. The letters K-Q or numbers 1-7 are called subshell letters. They are placed in superscript form.

What does the p mean in 1s22s22p63s1?
-2 Another view the p-shell, one of the 4 sub-shells always represents the outermost shell.
What is a quantum shell?
The quantum shell or the principle shell (represented by an integer known as the principle quantum number, n) are orbits found in an atom. It is arranged as n=1, n=2, and so forth, n=1 being closest to the nucleus. As the numbers increase, so do the energy. Each quantum shell is an orbit, and in the orbits exist sub-orbitals. Please see sub-orbitals for more details.
What is the overall of an atom?
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.
Make a sentence using the word shell?

How do use a shell in a sentence?
type shell in a sentence
How can you tell the doffermce between 2s subshell and 2p subshell?
You can tell the difference between a 2s sub-shell and 2p sub-shell from their energy levels, because a 2p sub-shell is a higher energy level than a 2s sub-shell.
What is shell and sub shell?
they are both the same meaning
What sub level s of energy make the o shell?
The sub-level s of energy that make the o shell is the K-shell.
How many sub shell are there in N shell?
4 s , p , d , 7
What number of electrons that can be held in first orbit closest to the nucleus?
The orbit or electron shell closest to the nucleus is the 1s sub-shell. It can hold 2 electrons before the 2s sub-shell is filled. H and He have their electrons in this shell (the 1s)
Why is 2d1 not possible?
A break down of 2d1:2 = the quantum energy level or electron shell denoted as 'n'd = the sub-shell of the energy level (known as a degenerate level)1 = the number of electrons occupying the sub-shell.Through extensive research by scientists, no known element has a d sub-shell in the second (n=2) energy level. In fact, the d sub-shell does not appear until the fourth period (fourth row).The first d sub-shell is known to be in the third energy level (therefore the first energy level with this sub-shell is 3d, but not 2d).Transition metals are the elements known to fill the d sub-shells. The first transition metal in the periodic table is scandium (Sc) with the electron configuration of [Ar]4s23d1.The reasons for the formation of sub-shell of d is beyond my knowledge and the scope of basic chemistry.
How many electrons in 2d xy?
The 2d sub energy level does not exist. The first shell to contain a d sub-shell is the third shell: the 3d sub-shell contains a maximum of 10 electrons, with two electrons in each of five different d orbitals.
How many sub shells does the second shell of an atom have?
3
How many sub-shells are present in n3 shell?
3
Why does cu show variable sub shell configuration?
Because copper loose electron from its penultimate outer shell
What are the maximum number of electrons that can be found in a 3s sub shell?
2
Why fluorine does not form oxyacid?
Because Fluorine does not have d sub shell.
