What is an inert gas on the periodic table? How reactive is nobelium? What is einsteinium? Where can you find einsteinium? How are halogens and noble gases different? What are the 6 noble gases that occur naturally? How does an alkali form?
To simplify the writing of electronic configurations, we can use a shorthand notation that uses the symbol of the previous noble gas in brackets to represent the inner electrons that are in a stable configuration. For example, instead of writing 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 for neon (Ne), we can writ...
Electron configuration of atoms Write full electron configurations for the following atoms: a. S b. Ni c. Ag d. I How do you find the simple configuration of electrons for an element? How is the attainment of a noble gas electron configuration important to our ideas of how atoms bond with...
Describe how the positions of elements (block s, d, p, f) in the periodic table are related to their electronic arrangement, in terms of SPDF notation. When finding formulas for binary compounds, which element gives away its charge to find the formula? W...
