It represents where it is located in the periodic table and how many protons a element has.
Answer:
There are 6 electrons in the outermost shell.
Explanation:
Sulphur is a non-mettalic element which is in the period 3 and group .6on the periodic table. It has an atomic number of 16 and a Mass number of 32. Atomic number tells you the number of electrons in an electrically neutral atom. It has the electronic configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4.
The orbitals have a formula 2n^2 where n = 0, 1, 2, 3 etc.
In the shells, n = 1 so there are 2 electrons. For n = 2, 2*(2)^2 = 8 electrons. So, 16 - (8 + 2) = 6 electrons in the 3 shell (outermost shell)
Therefore from the electronic confriguration above, there are 6 electrons in the outermost shell.
Answer:
In the light bulb, the flow of charge through the filament heats it up and causes it to glow. In this way, the light bulb converts electrical energy to heat energy and light energy.

In the light bulb, the flow of charge through the filament heats it up and causes it to glow. In this way, the light bulb converts electrical energy to heat energy and light energy.
As Rene Descartes - french mathematician of Cartesian graphs - said "Cogito ergo sum". I think, therefore I am.
This can be adapted to I think therefore I am, I think ... as a "geeky joke".
