Why is argon the last element in its period?

Argon is the last element in its period (period 3) because it fills the 3p sublevel, which can hold a maximum of six electrons. After argon, the next element, potassium, begins filling the 4s sublevel in the next period (period 4).


How would you justify the presence of 18 elements in the fifth of period of periodic table?

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


What phase of matter comes after gasses if you add energy?

If you add energy to gas, the next phase that you get is called plasma. In a plasma, the atoms have broken apart, and you have a mixture of sub-atomic particles that are not organized into atoms. Plasma is the highest energy phase; even if you keep adding energy, all you will get is hotter plasma.

What is sublevel stoping method of mining?

Sublevel stoping is a mining method where ore is mined in horizontal slices (or sublevels) starting from the bottom of the deposit and moving upwards. Once one sublevel is mined out, the next one above is blasted and the process continues until reaching the surface. This method is commonly used for steeply-dipping ore bodies where access from a single level is not feasible.


What is the definition of fermi energy?

The Fermi Energy is the highest energy level that a group of fermions, at absolute zero, can occupy. Wolfgang Pauli was able to show that no fermion can occupy the same quantum state as another one; so any group of fermions must have one at the lowest energy level, one at the next energy leve, etc. The highest level that such a group of fermions can occupy is called the Fermi Energy.


Why does lithium change to beryllium if you add a proton?

Adding a proton to a lithium nucleus transforms it into a beryllium nucleus by increasing its atomic number. This occurs because the number of protons in the nucleus defines the element, and adding a proton changes the element to the one with the next highest atomic number.


What is the orbital notation of the first twenty elements?

The electron configuration is an abbreviated version of the orbital notation. The orbital notation shows exactly where every electron is placed around the nucleus of the atom --> more specifically, what orbital and sublevel each electron is in and what the spin of the electron in an orbital is. Remember the s sublevel only has 1 orbital and can hold 2 electrons with opposite spins. the p sublevel has 3 orbitals each holding 2 electrons with a total of 6 electrons in the p sublevel. the d sublevel has 5 orbitals each holding 2 electrons with a total of 10 electrons in the d sublevel. the f sublevel has 7 orbitals each holding 2 electrons with a total of 14 electrons in the f sublevel. n is the principal energy level (there are 7 maximum for a ground state electron) l is the sublevel (there are 4 maximum for a ground state electron) n l 1 1s2 2 2s2 2p6 3 3s2 3p6 3d10 4 4s2 4p6 4d10 4f14 5 5s2 5p6 5d10 5f14 6 6s2 6p6 6d10 7 7s2 7p6 Start with the first energy level, (the first row), and put a diagonal line through it then write it down: 1s2 Then go to the next energy level, (n = 2), and put a line through the 2s and write it down next to the 1s2: 1s2 2s2. Then finish the 2nd row by putting a line through the 2p and the 3s which is diagonally underneath it and write those down next to the 1s2 2s2: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. Continue doing this until you have the entire electron configuration. The order of electron configurations is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d104p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f14 5d10 6p6 7s2 5f14 6d10 7p6 The orbital diagrams have the same order but you will see each orbital in the s, p, d, and f sublevels: This is for Al, Si, P, and S. Notice that you still draw every orbital in a sublevel (look at 3p in Al), even if you don't fill up that sublevel. Also, notice Si: It has 2 electrons in the 3p. You don't pair them up in an orbital because there are only 2. You don't start pairing them up until you have 4, 5, or 6 electrons in the p sublevel.
