Chemistry

Doss [256]2 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Each orbital can only carry at most 2 electrons wih opposite spins.

The first 3 shells are fully filled, giving 9 orbitals.

There is an extra electron in 4s, which gives another orbital. (even though it is not filled yet)

Hence there are 10 orbitals.

Why are noble gasses ''inert''
Bogdan [553]
Inert gases are gases that don't react with other elements. What this means is that they won't combine with other elements, and trigger chemical reactions. I've posted a picture of the Periodic Table. Take a look at the VERY LAST row, all the way on the RIGHT side of the table. That row is made of up NOBLE GASES (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, etc.) Those noble gases are INERT. They are non-reactive.
