How many of atoms are in the 3rd shell of an atom with 4 shells?
If you are asking about the number of electrons then it would be 8. The first shell can hold a maximum number of 2 electrons. The second and third shell would have a maximum of 8 electrons each.
What represents the electronic structure of an element?
Electronic structure is how many electrons each shell of an atom can hold. It is written by the number of electrons in the 1st shell (max 2) then a commer, the number of electrons in the 2nd shell (max 8) another commer, how many are in the 3rd shell (max 8) etc. example: 2,8,8
What is the maximum number of electrons in the whole shell?
1st Shell: 2 2nd Shell: 8 3rd Shell: 8
What Has 2 electrons in first shell 8 in the 2nd and 6 in the 3rd shell?
sulfur atom
How many outer shell electrons does an oxygen atom have before sharing?
itcarries 8 electrons and 8 protonsand its valency is 2.
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.
How many of atoms are in the 3rd shell of an atom with 4 shells?
If you are asking about the number of electrons then it would be 8. The first shell can hold a maximum number of 2 electrons. The second and third shell would have a maximum of 8 electrons each.
What is the configuration for chlorine?
Chlorine is the 17th element in the periodic table. The 1st shell can only hold 2 electrons The 2nd shell can only hold 8 electrons The 3rd shell can only hold 8 electrons Therefore, the electronic configuration would be: 2, 8, 7 1st 2nd 3rd Altogether, it makes up 17.
How many electrons can be on level 3?
I believe its 18 electrons on the 3rd orbital shell
How many electrons can the 3rd level hold?
16
What is the tin bohr model?
The bohr model of an atom shows the number of electrons, neutrons, and protons contained in the atom. Each electron is in an orbital (the lines), and the protons and neutrons are contained in the nucleus (the center thingy).
2 Electron in firsat shell 8 electrons in second shell and 6 electrons in third shell?
No, its two electrons in the first, 8 electrons in the 2nd and 3rd shell if its stable
What represents the electronic structure of an element?
Electronic structure is how many electrons each shell of an atom can hold. It is written by the number of electrons in the 1st shell (max 2) then a commer, the number of electrons in the 2nd shell (max 8) another commer, how many are in the 3rd shell (max 8) etc. example: 2,8,8
How would you draw the electron configuration of silicon?
1st shell - 2 electrons 2nd shell - 8 electrons 3rd shell - 4 electrons
How many electrons are in the first electron shell?
Up to 2 in the first shell Then 8 in the 2nd And 8 in the 3rd
An atom chlorine has several valence electrons in its?
Chlorine has 7 valence electrons in the 3rd electron shell. Chlroine is in the third row of the periodic chart, so its 3rd shell is the valence shell, and it is in the next to last column, 7A, so it has 7 electrons in that 3rd shell.
How many electrons can you fit on each energy level?
On the first shell you can only fit 2. 2nd shell is 8. 3rd shell is 18.
