    The quantum mechanics of such an arrangement should be like only one shell of the well-known quantum mechanical structure of a single atom, with a stable filled shell for n = 2, 8, 18, 32, 50, 72, 98, 128, etc. (i.e., twice a perfect square number), but this series does not include 60.

  3. Electron configurations of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configurations_of...

    This page shows the electron configurations of the neutral gaseous atoms in their ground states. For each atom the subshells are given first in concise form, then with all subshells written out, followed by the number of electrons per shell. For phosphorus (element 15) as an example, the concise form is [Ne] 3s 2 3p 3.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_12_element

    Legend. primordial element. synthetic element. Group 12, by modern IUPAC numbering, [1] is a group of chemical elements in the periodic table. It includes zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), [2][3][4] and copernicium (Cn). [5] Formerly this group was named IIB (pronounced as "group two B", as the "II" is a Roman numeral) by CAS and old IUPAC ...

    The seventh member of group 18 is oganesson (Og), an unstable synthetic element whose chemistry is still uncertain because only five very short-lived atoms (t 1/2 = 0.69 ms) have ever been synthesized (as of 2020 [3]).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pnictogen

    Pnictogen. The pnictogens[1] (/ ˈpnɪktədʒən / or / ˈnɪktədʒən /; from Ancient Greek: πνῑ́γω "to choke" and -gen, "generator") are the chemical elements in group 15 of the periodic table. This group is also known as the nitrogen group or nitrogen family. Group 15 consists of the elements nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), arsenic (As ...

  8. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    t. e. The periodic table, also known as the periodic table of the elements, is an ordered arrangement of the chemical elements into rows (" periods ") and columns (" groups "). It is an icon of chemistry and is widely used in physics and other sciences. It is a depiction of the periodic law, which states that when the elements are arranged in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_(element)

    A heavy, silvery d-block element, mercury is the only metallic element that is known to be liquid at standard temperature and pressure; [ a ] the only other element that is liquid under these conditions is the halogen bromine, though metals such as caesium, gallium, and rubidium melt just above room temperature.
