According to a law, the orbital with lower n+l value fills first. So 4S has lower energy

i.e. lower n+l value (4) than 3D (5).

So the elements after 3P^6 move to the 4th Periodic Table .

How many elements can the 3rd shell hold?

The 3rd shell can contain 18 electrons. The elements that have a 3rd shell as the outer shell are the the elements in period 3, where the 3s and 3p orbitals are filled to a maximum of 8 electrons. The 3d orbitals are filled in the 4th period in the transition elements.

The elements in period 4 that have electrons in the 3d sublevel are elements 21 - 36. Refer to the Related Links for a printable periodic table that includes electron configurations.


What is the correlation of a period number with the elements of that period?

The period number of an element corresponds to the energy level of its outermost electrons. Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells. As you move from left to right across a period, the number of protons and electrons increases, resulting in higher effective nuclear charge, which affects the properties of the elements.


Are the elements sodium magnesium and silicon in the same period of elements?

No, the elements sodium (Na) and magnesium (Mg) are in Period 3, while silicon (Si) is in Period 3 in the periodic table of elements. Sodium is in group 1, magnesium is in group 2, and silicon is in group 14.
