What else can I help you with?
When electrons are added to the outermost shell of a carbon atom it forms what?
negative ion
What is the octet electrons?
An octet of electrons is when the outermost electron shell of an atom contains eight electrons.
What is the name for the outermost energy level of an atom that can participate in bonding?
The outermost energy level of an atom that can participate in bonding is called the valence shell. This shell contains the valence electrons, which are the electrons involved in forming chemical bonds with other atoms.
What type of shell is the outermost energy of a shell of an atom?
The outermost occupied energy shell of an atom is the valence shell, and it varies depending on the atom. It can be determined by looking at the period the atom is in on the periodic table.
What is the name given to the outermost shell of the atom?
the valence shell
An atom contains seven electrons in its outermost energy level the atom is what?
The question is somewhat vague. If the question were written as an atom contains seven electrons in the outermost energy level and that outermost shell is a p-shell then the atom is a halogen. If the atom contains seven electrons in the outermost energy level and that outermost shell is a d-shell or f-shell then the atom is a metal.
When electrons are added to the outermost shell of a carbon atom it forms what?
negative ion
What is the octet electrons?
An octet of electrons is when the outermost electron shell of an atom contains eight electrons.
What is the outermost energy level of an atom is considered full if the level contains?
Outermost energy level is full if there are 8 electrons in the valence shell.
What are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom?
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom. The ones in the inner shell are known as core electrons.
In what shell do valence electrons locate in?
Valence electrons of any atom are located in the outermost shell that atom carries electrons. For example a carbon atom has 6 electrons: 2e in its first shell (which is full) and 4e (valence electrons) in second shell--there are no electrons farther than second shell for carbon.
How many electrons would carbon have in its outermost shell?
1 atom of the element, carbon, would have 4 electrons in its outer most shell. It's electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2px1 2py1. 2 is the outer most shell, so there are 4 electrons in shell 2.

How many valence of carbon atom?
Symbol of carbon is C its valency is +4
How many electrons does an iodone atom have in its outermost shell?
There is no Iodone atom, there is however an Iodine atom that has seven valence electrons or seven electrons in outermost shell.
What is the name given to the outermost shell of the atom?
the valence shell
