What is an outer shell of an element?
The outer shell is the valence electrons and they are very loosely bound to the nucleus - less force by the nucleus on the valence electrons, so valence shell's electrons are exchanged first in any reaction.Valence
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 electronic shells?
A shell surrounding the nucleus of an atom containing electrons.
Atom x has 8 protons 8 neutrons in the nucleus two electrons in the first shell and eight electrons in the next shell this atom is?
Your information is inconsistant: Either this is a normal O16 with only 6 electrons in the outer shell, or this is a negative oxygen ion. Go with choice #1. this guy must have missed the 2 electrons in the first shell, it can't be a normal O16 atom because there are more electrons than protons, so it is a negative ion
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.
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)
What is the Bohr-Rutherford diagram of the aluminum atom?
two dots on the first shell closest to the nucleus, eight dots on the second shell and then three dots on the outer shell to total 13 two dots on the first shell closest to the nucleus, eight dots on the second shell and then three dots on the outer shell to total 13
How many electrons can the shell closest to nucleus hold?
The shell closest to the nucleus of an atom can only hold up to two electrons.
How many electrons are in the first shell of an atom of oxygen?
Oxygen has 8 electrons (assuming its charge is 0), and in the first shell ("closest" to the nucleus) there are 2 electrons. :)
What is the correct Lewis structure for an Nitrogen atom?
Two electrons in the first shell (closest to the nucleus), then five on the next shell out, usually shown as a pair and 3 singles.
Number of electrons held closet to nucleus?
2 electrons are held closest to the nucleus, after that the maximum per shell is eight.
How many electrons can the first shell hold?
The first electron shell, or energy level only holds 2 electrons. It is the smallest and closest energy level to the atom's nucleus. Hydrogen and helium are the only two elements to have electrons in just the first shell.
M shell electrons are more tightly bound?
Electrons found in the K shell are more tightly bound compared to all other shells. This is because it is the innermost shell and is closest to the nucleus.
Electrons spin in shells around the nucleus The closest shell n equals 1 can contain a maximum of?
i cant answer that sorry
Where is the shell that has the lowest energy level?
This electron shell is near the atomic nucleus.
Space that represents the average distance that are from the nucleus is called?
Is called a shell. The first shell around the nucleus can hold a maximum of two electrons. While the second shell can hold a maximum of eight electrons.
What are the number of electron that can be held in the first orbit closest to the nucleus?
8
