In sodium (Na), which has an atomic number of 11, the electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹. This means that the first shell (1s) is filled with 2 electrons, the second shell (2s and 2p) is filled with 8 electrons, and the third shell (3s) contains 1 electron. Electrons fill the shells starting from the lowest energy level (1s) and move to higher levels (2s, 2p, and then 3s) until all 11 electrons are accommodated. Sodium's single valence electron in the 3s shell makes it highly reactive, as it tends to lose that electron easily.
No. The inner shells are filled first.
Selenium has 5 filled electron shells. The electron configuration for selenium is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p4.
completely filled valence shells
The electron configuration of sodium is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1. It has three principal energy levels. It has only one valence electron.
Xenon has five electron shells.
Sodium, i believe has 3 shells.
Sodium has 3 energy levels, 1s, 2s, 2p, and 3s.
No. The inner shells are filled first.
The correct number of electron clouds or shells sodium has is 3.
A neutral xenon atom has 8 electron shells with 6 completely filled shells and 2 partially filled shells.
Selenium has 5 filled electron shells. The electron configuration for selenium is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p4.
A neutral xenon atom has 54 electrons. Two of its electron shells would be completely filled, with 2 and 8 electrons, leaving 44 electrons in the remaining electron shells.
The electronic configuration of xenon is 2, 8, 18, 18, 8. So there are FIVE electrons shells that are filled. Alternatively, xenon belongs to 5th group, so the fifth shell is the valence shell.
completely filled valence shells
i dont think so
Sodium has 3 electron shells. The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, while the second and third shells can hold up to 8 electrons each. Sodium has 11 electrons in total.
The electron configuration of sodium is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1. It has three principal energy levels. It has only one valence electron.
