Sub-level notation is a way to represent the energy levels within an atom. The sub-levels are denoted by letters s, p, d, and f, each corresponding to a specific type of orbital. Each energy level is made up of one or more sub-levels, and they help determine the arrangement of electrons within an atom.
You mean valence electron? 2 If your talking about Bohr Diagrams then it depends on the metal
valence electrons or electrons of the last level of electrons in an atom or the electrons in the last energy level of an atom, they have a negative chargethese electrons usually are the ones that take part in reacting, such as ionic bonding and covalent bonding :)

The noble gas notation is a notation formed as a result of the electron configuration notation being used in conjunction with noble gases. The noble gas preceding the element in question is written then the electron configuration is continued from that point forward. The notation is shorter to write and makes it easier to identify elements. The noble gas notation starts for elements after helium. For example, the electronic configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2, whereas its noble gas notation is [He] 2s2 2p2.
Outer electrons
Lewis dot diagrams represent the bonds between the atoms of a molecule, as well as any lone pair of electrons. For instance, in the O2 molecule, there is a double bond between the two oxygen atoms, but there are also two lone pairs of electrons per oxygen atom.
The electron notation for sulfur is 2-8-6. This means that sulfur has 2 electrons in its first energy level, 8 electrons in its second energy level, and 6 electrons in its third energy level.
It is important for Aufbau and Lewis diagrams to emphasize electrons as they help visually represent the arrangement of electrons in an atom or molecule. This allows us to understand the bonding and structure of molecules and predict their properties. Emphasizing electrons in these diagrams makes it easier to interpret the chemical behavior of the species being represented.
Sub-level notation is a way to represent the energy levels within an atom. The sub-levels are denoted by letters s, p, d, and f, each corresponding to a specific type of orbital. Each energy level is made up of one or more sub-levels, and they help determine the arrangement of electrons within an atom.
Elements in the same group have the same number of electrons in their outermost energy level, which influences their chemical properties. The way to represent these outer electrons is through electron dot diagrams, where the valence electrons are shown as dots around the element's symbol.
It refers to numbers of electrons in the 2p sublevel.

Bohr notation describes the grouping of electrons within the different periods by orbital shells of an atom. For example, Lead (Pb) is an element in the 6th period, 14th group and has an electron configuration of [Xe] 6s24f145d106p2. Based on electron groupings of those orbitals, lead would have an electron grouping by period of 2 electrons in 1s, 8 in 2s2p, 18 in 3s3p3d, 32 in 4s4p4d4f, 32 in 5s5p5d5f, and 4 in 6s6p for a notation of:2-8-18-32-32-4This notation is not based on electron orbital energy level, but instead by the number of electrons in each period. This is significantly different than the filling of electrons by energy level that would actually group and fill the electrons in ascending energy levels:1s, 2s, 2p3s, 3p4s, *3d4p5s, *4d5p6s, *4f5d6p7s, *5f6d7pNotice specifically that energy levels for the "d" and "f" orbitals are out of sequence within the orbital levels because of their higher energy states relative to their period level. If grouped this way, the notation would look more like:2-2-8-8-18-18-26This notation is very redundant within the first six energy levels and can be confusing when compared with the period levels because of the out-of-sequence orbitals for the 3d, 4d, 5d, 4f, and 5f periods.Also it is counter-intuitive to the periodicity to the sub-atomic organization within the periods while Bohr notation follows it exactly:- 2 elements in period 1, 2 electrons in 1st set notation- 8 elements in period 2, 8 electrons in 2nd set notation- 18 in period 3, 18 in 3rd notation- 32 in period 4, 32 in 4th notation- 32 in period 5, 32 in 5th notation- 46 in period 6, 46 in 6th notation- 46 in period 7, 46 in 7th notation(if you consider all "undiscovered" synthetics in the last two notations)
Eight electrons represent a complete (filled) outermost energy level for elements heavier than boron. This is because the outermost energy level can hold a maximum of 8 electrons according to the octet rule.
