Electrons in an atom are found on different electron shells depending on how much energy they possess, and they determine how atoms will interact with each other. The outermost electron shell holds the valance electrons.
Answer:Lithium
Explanation:Lithium has 3 protons, and 4 neutrons making it the lightest element that isn't a gas.
Answer:
The sum of each elementary step in a reaction mechanism must yield the overall reaction equation. From the rate law of the rate-determining step it must agree with the experimentally determined rate law. The rate-determining step is the slowest step in a reaction mechanism. Because it is the slowest, it determines the rate of the overall reaction.
Explanation:
17 protons 17 electrons 18 neutrons
