Chemistry

Advocard [28]3 years ago

The number of electrons in an atom's outermost valence shell governs its bonding behaviour. Elements whose atoms have the same number of valence electrons are grouped together in the Periodic Table. ... Nonmetals tend to attract additional valence electrons to form either ionic or covalent bonds.

The electron configuration for an atom is 1s 2s 2p2. How many electrons does the atom have?
taurus [48]

Answer:

Four  

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>superscripts</em> in an electron configuration tell us how many electrons are in a subshell.

If the electron configuration is 1s¹ 2s¹2p², the total number of electrons is

1 + 1 + 2 = 4

The atom contains four electrons.

<em>Note</em>: this atom is in an <em>excited state</em>, because the 1s and 2s subshells can each hold one more electron.
