The innermost shell of an atom, also known as the K shell, can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. This is based on the formula (2n^2), where (n) is the principal quantum number of the shell. For the K shell, (n=1), so (2(1^2) = 2). Thus, only 2 electrons can occupy this shell.
The innermost shell can accomade 2 electrons
false
The inner most shell is the K shell with 2 electrons whereas the outer shell or the L shell has 5 electrons
Electrons that are further away from the nucleus have a greater attraction because the positive and negative charges are stronger than innermost electrons
Only one. The first shell can have up to 2 electrons.
The innermost shell of every atom except hydrogen consists of 2 electrons.
The innermost shell can accomade 2 electrons
Only 2 electrons can reside in the innermost shell.
Innermost is surely 2, as with every atom apart from Hydrogen?
false
false
2
The inner most shell is the K shell with 2 electrons whereas the outer shell or the L shell has 5 electrons
no
Electrons in the outermost electron shell have the most energy in an atom. The energy of an electron increases as it moves further away from the nucleus. Electrons in the innermost shell have the least energy, while electrons in the nucleus have the highest energy due to their proximity to the protons.
The very inner shell of an atom is the 1st shell and can only contain 2 electrons.
There are 5 electrons in outer most shell of phosphorus it belongs to v group of periodic table.5.its atomic number is 15
