there are 2 electrons in the inner shell of a hydrogen atom.
Hydrogen needs only 1 electron to complete its outer shell. the configuration of Hydrogen is 1s1 this indicates that it has only 1 electron in the shell S.and to complete the S shell H needs only one electron as the capacity of the S is 2.
hydrogen has 1 electron in its valence shell
Valence shell
The outer-most shell of an atom is called the valence shell. It is involved in forming chemical bonds with other atoms.
there are 2 electrons in the inner shell of a hydrogen atom.
oxygen has 6 valence elctrons and needs two more to complete its electron shell and hydrogen is just what it needs hydrogen has one electron which makes a complete electron shell for oxygen.
Not by itself, no (that is, hydrogen is not a noble gas). A neutral hydrogen atom starts out with 1 electron, but it needs 2 electrons to fill its shell. Therefore, a hydrogen atom will often form 1 covalent bond with another atom, in order to gain that 1 extra electron it needs to fill its shell. Important note: Most elements need 8 electrons to get a full shell, but hydrogen is the exception: it only needs 2 electrons to get a full shell.
Hydrogen needs only 1 electron to complete its outer shell. the configuration of Hydrogen is 1s1 this indicates that it has only 1 electron in the shell S.and to complete the S shell H needs only one electron as the capacity of the S is 2.
Hydrogen doesn't really have a valence shell. It has one electron only.
Hydrogen has one shell with only 1 electron on the valance shell.
The innermost shell of every atom except hydrogen consists of 2 electrons.
A hydrogen bond is a very strong dipole-dipole bond. A hydrogen bond can only form between hydrogen and a strong electromagnetic atom; fluorine, oxygen or chlorine.
One atom is needed to full the outer shell of a hydrogen atom, this is bacuse in GCSE terms electrom structure goes 2,8,8,2 and hydrogen only has one shell, so it would need 2 to complete this shell. This is the same for A-level however we refer to electron structure in spd, the electron structure of hydrogen then would be 1s1.
An atom doesn't have a "shell" at all. Electrons orbit an atom at different layers each called a "shell", so your answer is no.
No. Every atom wants to complete its valence shell. Since Hydrogen has one electron it only fills up half of the sorbital and needs one more electron to fill its shell. This means that the H atom will be very reactive because it wants to fill its valence shell.
The number that tells you how many electrons an atom needs to gain or lose to complete a shell is called the oxidation number. It indicates the electron gain or loss required for an atom to achieve a full valence shell.
