Need help understanding how the K atom could obtain eight outer shell electrons?
There are 2 valence electrons in an atom of magnesium. There are 5 valence electrons that are in an atom of phosphorus. There are 4 valence electrons that are in a silicon atom.
The electrons farthest away from the nucleus are the valence electrons of an atom.
the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom are considered to be the valence electrons.
Valence electrons
In an atom of magnesium, the valence electrons are found in the 3s sublevel. Magnesium has an atomic number of 12, which means it has two electrons in the 1s sublevel, two in the 2s, and eight in the 2p, leaving two electrons in the 3s sublevel as its valence electrons.
The most valence electrons an atom can contain is eight.
A krypton atom has 8 valence electrons in the 4s and 4p orbitals.
Yes it is.
eight I believe
26
No, eight valence electrons completely fills the valence band and makes the atom inert. The most reactive atoms have either one valence electron or seven valence electrons.
nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. carbon has 4 valence electrons.
