1st orbit - 2
2nd orbit - 8
3rd orbit - 8
all together all three orbits can hold up to 18 electrons.
Electrons orbit in electron clouds. They are in definite layers, and are lettered starting with K.
An electron
Electrons are the particles that circle the nucleus of an atom.
Electrons surround the nucleus of an atom in patterns called electron shells.
Neutrons and electrons are found in the nucleus of an atom; electrons are outside the nucleus in "electron clouds".
Electrons orbit in electron clouds. They are in definite layers, and are lettered starting with K.
There are 2 electron shells around the nucleus of a beryllium atom. The first shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, and the second shell can hold a maximum of 8 electrons. Since beryllium has 4 electrons, 2 electrons will be in the first shell and the remaining 2 electrons will be in the second shell.
Electrons
Electrons are found in the electron cloud that surrounds the nucleus.
An electron
None, electrons are in the electron cloud, not the nucleus
Electrons farthest from nucleus are valence electrons. They are present in outermost orbit.
what is the area outside the nucleus where electrons are found
Is called a shell. The first shell around the nucleus can hold a maximum of two electrons. While the second shell can hold a maximum of eight electrons.
Electrons are the particles that circle the nucleus of an atom.
Electrons surround the nucleus of an atom in patterns called electron shells.
The three subatomic particles are the proton, the neutron, and the electron. Protons and neutrons are located inside the nucleus. Electrons are located outside of the nucleus in the electron cloud.
