  2. The first shell (of all atoms) has 1 subshell of s-orbitals containing 1 s orbital. This means that the first shell can hold 2 electrons. The second shell has 2 subshells: 1 s-orbital and 3 p-orbitals. This means that the second shell can hold 8 total electrons. Every orbital is a shape (that can be determined by a trigonometric function I ...

  3. Jul 20, 2023 · Hydrogen has one electron; therefore, it has only one spot within the 1s orbital occupied. This is designated as 1 s 1 , where the superscripted 1 refers to the one electron within the 1 s orbital. Helium has two electrons; therefore, it can completely fill the 1 s orbital with its two electrons.

  4. In chemistry and atomic physics, an electron shell may be thought of as an orbit that electrons follow around an atom's nucleus. The closest shell to the nucleus is called the "1 shell" (also called the "K shell"), followed by the "2 shell" (or "L shell"), then the "3 shell" (or "M shell"), and so on farther and farther from the nucleus.

  5. The outermost (valence) has 1 electron. The shell diagram of the Na atom is shown here. The shell nearest the nucleus (first shell) has 2 electrons, the second shell has 8 electrons and the last (outermost) shell has 1 electron (2.8.1)

  6. Aug 14, 2020 · Note that for three series of elements, scandium (Sc) through copper (Cu), yttrium (Y) through silver (Ag), and lutetium (Lu) through gold (Au), a total of 10 d electrons are successively added to the (n – 1) shell next to the n shell to bring that (n – 1) shell from 8 to 18 electrons.

  7. Note that for three series of elements, scandium (Sc) through copper (Cu), yttrium (Y) through silver (Ag), and lutetium (Lu) through gold (Au), a total of 10 d electrons are successively added to the (n – 1) shell next to the n shell to bring that (n – 1) shell from 8 to 18 electrons.

  8. Each shell has a maximum amount of electrons it can hold. For example, shell 1n can hold 2 electrons, shell 2n can hold 8 electrons, and shell 3n can hold 18 electrons. The rule to calculate the number of electrons that each shell can hold is 2n 2. E.g. the first shell is 2(1) 2 which gives you 2 electrons.
