No, the tendency is to fill out lower energy levels first.

Are the highest energy levels in shells always filled first?

No, the highest energy levels in shells are not always filled first. Electrons fill atomic orbitals starting from the lowest energy level and move to higher energy levels according to the Aufbau principle. This means that within a shell, sub-levels with lower energy (e.g., s before p, p before d) are filled before those with higher energy. Therefore, the filling order is determined by energy levels and sub-levels rather than simply by shell numbers.


What is true about the electron configurations of the noble gases Decent levels are partially filled be the electrons with the highest energy you sublevel see the highest occupied SN?

The valence electron shell of noble gases is full.


How many elecrtons shells would be filled by a neutral xenon atom?

The first 3 energy levels are filled, the 4s and 4p and 4d sublevels are filled, and the 5s and 5p sublevels are also filled. So only the first three energy levels are completely filled. The fourth and fifth energy levels are partly filled. The electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s23p63d104s24p64d105s25p6 or [Kr]4d105s25p6.


Which atom is more chemically reactive an atom with a partly filled energy level or an atom with all energy levels completely filled?

the one that is completely filled


What is an element with 7 valence electrons and 4 energy levels?

This element is likely chlorine (Cl), which has 7 valence electrons and 3 filled energy levels with a partially filled 4th energy level.


How are the electrons arranged in energy levels?

The innermost energy level always contains two electrons and the rest are arranged in 8s. for example the energy levels of calcium- 2,8,8,2. calcium contains 20 electrons. once the energy levels are filled upto 8 electrons then we move from onto the next energy level. hope this makes sense lol :)


Which energy levels contain electrons that have the lowest energy?

Electrons located in the innermost energy levels (such as the 1s level) have the lowest energy. These energy levels are closest to the nucleus and are filled first in an atom according to the aufbau principle.


Atoms with filled energy levels form chemical bonds?

False


Does neon have the highest energy level among noble gases?

Neon has only 2 energy leves. Radon has the highest with 6 energy levels.


What are the highest occupied energy levels in aliminium?

The highest occupies energy level in aluminum is the 3rd energy level. Its electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s23p1.


How many energy levels are partially or fully occupied in a neutral atom of calcium?

A neutral atom of calcium has five energy levels that are partially or fully occupied. These energy levels are filled with electrons according to the Aufbau principle, with the first two levels (K and L) being fully filled while the remaining three levels (M, N, and O) are partially filled.


When do d orbital start getting filled?

after the s orbital of the next highest energy level
