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.
Ba 2--- 57 La 2-1 - 58 Ce 2 1 1 - 59 Pr 2 3-- 60 Nd 2 4-- 61 Pm 2 5-- 62 Sm 2 6-- 63 Eu 2 ... Note that these electron configurations are given for neutral atoms in ...
In each term of an electron configuration, n is the positive integer that precedes each orbital letter (helium's electron configuration is 1s 2, therefore n = 1, and the orbital contains two electrons). An atom's nth electron shell can accommodate 2n 2 electrons. For example, the first shell can accommodate two electrons, the second shell eight ...
This can hold up to two electrons. The second shell similarly contains a 2s orbital, and it also contains three dumbbell-shaped 2p orbitals, and can thus fill up to eight electrons (2×1 + 2×3 = 8). The third shell contains one 3s orbital, three 3p orbitals, and five 3d orbitals, and thus has a capacity of 2×1 + 2×3 + 2×5 = 18.
[9]: 2–3 Reactions with water and alcohols are also exothermic and release hydrogen gas: [9]: 3 Ba + 2 ROH → Ba(OR) 2 + H 2 ↑ (R is an alkyl group or a hydrogen atom) Barium reacts with ammonia to form the electride [Ba(NH 3) 6](e −) 2, which near room temperature gives the amide Ba(NH 2) 2. [11] The metal is readily attacked by acids.
The configurations of the elements in this table are written starting with [Og] because oganesson is expected to be the last prior element with a closed-shell (inert gas) configuration, 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 3d 10 4s 2 4p 6 4d 10 4f 14 5s 2 5p 6 5d 10 5f 14 6s 2 6p 6 6d 10 7s 2 7p 6. Similarly, the [172] in the configurations for elements ...
A mnemonic is a memory aid used to improve long-term memory and make the process of consolidation easier. Many chemistry aspects, rules, names of compounds, sequences of elements, their reactivity, etc., can be easily and efficiently memorized with the help of mnemonics.
Mg 2 C 3 + 4H 2 O → 2Mg(OH) 2 + C 3 H 4. Reaction with nitrogen. Only Be and Mg form nitrides directly. 3Be + N 2 → Be 3 N 2 3Mg + N 2 → Mg 3 N 2. Reaction with hydrogen. Alkaline earth metals react with hydrogen to generate saline hydride that are unstable in water. Ca + H 2 → CaH 2. Reaction with water. Ca, Sr, and Ba readily react ...
