The 5p subshell is a p-subshell, and as such is filled by 6 electrons - three pairs spinning in opposite directions.
The number of electrons in each subshell is as follows:
Subshell s p d f theoretical next subshells
No. of e- 2 6 10 14 18, 22, 26, etc.
The highest energy sublevel for tellurium (Te), which has an atomic number of 52, is the 5p sublevel. In its electron configuration, tellurium is represented as [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁴, indicating that the 5p sublevel is the outermost and highest energy level occupied by electrons.
Barium (Ba) has an atomic number of 56, meaning it has 56 electrons. The electron configuration for barium is [Xe] 6s², indicating that it does not have any electrons in the 5p subshell. Therefore, barium contains 0 electrons in the 5p subshell.
Stadium (St) is an element with the atomic number 51. It has a ground-state electron configuration of [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p³. In this configuration, the 5p subshell has three electrons, which are unpaired. Therefore, there are three unpaired electrons in stadium.
Indium (In) has 46 electrons in total. Its electron configuration is [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p¹, meaning it has 36 core electrons (those in the noble gas configuration of krypton) and 10 valence electrons (from the 4d, 5s, and 5p orbitals). Thus, the number of core electrons in indium is 36.
The valence electrons of iodine are located in the 5p orbital. Iodine has an atomic number of 53, and its electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 4p⁶ 5s² 5p⁵. The five valence electrons in the 5th energy level are distributed in the 5s and 5p orbitals, with the 5p orbital containing the unpaired electrons that participate in bonding.
The highest energy sublevel for tellurium (Te), which has an atomic number of 52, is the 5p sublevel. In its electron configuration, tellurium is represented as [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁴, indicating that the 5p sublevel is the outermost and highest energy level occupied by electrons.
The 5p sublevel is completed with 6 electrons with the addition of the element radon (Rn).
There is 1 5s orbital
In the fifth period of the periodic table, the atoms of the elements in the first two groups are adding 1 and 2 electrons, respectively, to their highest energy 5s sublevel. Starting in group 3/IIIB and going through group 12/IIB, the atoms of those elements are adding electrons to their highest energy 4d sublevel. Since the d sublevel can contain a maxium of 10 electrons, there are 10 elements whose atoms are filling the 4d sublevel. Once the 4d sublevel is filled, the next higher energy sublevel is the 5p sublevel. Starting with the group 13/IIIA elements, the 5p sublevel is being filled. Since a p sublevel can contain a maximum of 6 electrons, there are six elements whose atoms are filling the 5p sublevel. 5s sublevel filling: 2 elements 4d sublevel filling: 10 elements 5p sublevel filling: 6 elements --------------------------------------- Total: 18 elements For a printable periodic table that includes electron configurations, go to the following link: http://www.nist.gov/pml/data/periodic.cfm
Each orbital in Xenon has its full complement of electrons.
Barium (Ba) has 2 valence electrons in its outer shell. Therefore, it does not have any 5p electrons.
