What else can I help you with?
Atoms that have the same number of valence electrons in their outer shell?
Such atoms belong to a group in the periodic table of elements.
How do the outer electrons in metal atoms differ from the outer electrons in nonmetal atoms?
Outer electrons in metal atoms are loosely held and can easily move, allowing metals to conduct electricity and heat. In contrast, outer electrons in nonmetal atoms are tightly held, making nonmetals poor conductors of electricity and heat. Additionally, metal atoms typically have fewer outer electrons than nonmetal atoms.
Neutral atoms of neon atomic number of 10 have the same number of electrons as each what except?
Neutral atoms of neon have the same number of electrons as atoms of fluorine, magnesium, and sodium, excluding helium atoms.
What does the group of the periodic have to do with reactivity?
The table was organized so that elements of similar properties are in the same group. What (partly) determines reactivity is the number of electrons an atom has in it's ground state. . Within the atom electrons are organized in shells. Atoms are stable when they have 8 electrons in their outer shell (for hydrogen and helium it is 2 electrons.) . Elements of: Group 18 have 8 electrons in their outer shells Group 17 have 7 electrons in their outer shells Group 16 have 6 electrons in their outer shells Group 15 have 5 electrons in their outer shells Group 14 have 4 electrons in their outer shells Group 13 have 3 electrons in their outer shells Groups 3-12 have varied number of electrons in their outer shells Group 2 have 2 electrons in their outer shells Group 1 have 1 electron in their outer shells
Does argon has the same number of electrons in its outer shell as magnesium metal?
No. Argon has eight electrons in its outer shell and magnesium has two electrons in its outer shell.
How does the number of the outer energy level electrons relate to the properties of elements?
Elements whose atoms have the same number of outer electrons have similar properties..
How does the number of outer energy level electrons related to the properties of elements?

Atoms that have the same number of valence electrons in their outer shell?
Such atoms belong to a group in the periodic table of elements.
Atoms in the same group on the periodic table have what?
Atoms in the same group (in the same vertical column) of the periodic table have the same number of electrons in their outer shell. A neutral atom has the same number of electrons as it has protons. The number of protons is given by it's atomic number. The electrons are considered to be arranged in "shells." The outermost shell can have from 1 to 8 electrons. The effect of being in the same group is that the atoms within a group have similar reactions.
How are the electron clouds of the atoms of the elements in a group the same?
Atoms of the elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer energy shells. This gives the elements similar Chemical Propetries.
How do the outer electrons in metal atoms differ from the outer electrons in nonmetal atoms?
Outer electrons in metal atoms are loosely held and can easily move, allowing metals to conduct electricity and heat. In contrast, outer electrons in nonmetal atoms are tightly held, making nonmetals poor conductors of electricity and heat. Additionally, metal atoms typically have fewer outer electrons than nonmetal atoms.
What does the group number in an periodic table indicate about the structure of the atoms of all the elements in that group?
The periodic table also has a special name for its vertical columns. Each column is called a group. The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Those outer electrons are also called valence electrons.
What is the rule about the number of outer electrons that make up an atom?
The valence band of an atom is composed of an s orbital and up to three p orbitals, each of which can contain at most two electrons. Atoms try to either completely fill or completely empty these orbitals when they undergo chemical reactions and usually do so by transferring the minimum number of electrons possible. Hydrogen and helium are a special case as they can have no p orbitals.
Neutral atoms of neon atomic number of 10 have the same number of electrons as each what except?
Neutral atoms of neon have the same number of electrons as atoms of fluorine, magnesium, and sodium, excluding helium atoms.
Atoms have the same number of?
Protons and electrons

What is the link between group number and number of outer electron?
The number of outer electrons is the same as the group number.
