  2. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    The examination of atomic spectra allowed the electron configurations of atoms to be determined experimentally, and led to an empirical rule (known as Madelung's rule (1936), [11] see below) for the order in which atomic orbitals are filled with electrons.

  3. Aufbau principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aufbau_principle

    The rule then predicts the electron configuration 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 3d 9 4s 2, abbreviated [Ar] 3d 9 4s 2 where [Ar] denotes the configuration of argon, the preceding noble gas. However, the measured electron configuration of the copper atom is [Ar] 3d 10 4s 1. By filling the 3d subshell, copper can be in a lower energy state.

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

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

    As an approximate rule, electron configurations are given by the Aufbau principle and the Madelung rule. However there are numerous exceptions; for example the lightest exception is chromium, which would be predicted to have the configuration 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 3d 4 4s 2 , written as [Ar] 3d 4 4s 2 , but whose actual configuration given ...

  5. Electron shell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_shell

    The direction of the red arrow indicates the order of state filling. Although it is sometimes stated that all the electrons in a shell have the same energy, this is an approximation. However, the electrons in one subshell do have exactly the same level of energy, with later subshells having more energy per electron than earlier ones. This ...

  6. Periodic table (electron configurations) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_(electron...

    Note that these electron configurations are given for neutral atoms in the gas phase, which are not the same as the electron configurations for the same atoms in chemical environments. In many cases, multiple configurations are within a small range of energies and the small irregularities that arise in the d- and f-blocks are quite irrelevant ...

  7. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    A new row is started when a new electron shell has its first electron. Columns are determined by the electron configuration of the atom; elements with the same number of electrons in a particular subshell fall into the same columns (e.g. oxygen, sulfur, and selenium are in the same column because they all have four electrons in the outermost p ...

  9. Valence electron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_electron

    Such an atom has the following electron configuration: s 2 p 5; this requires only one additional valence electron to form a closed shell. To form an ionic bond, a halogen atom can remove an electron from another atom in order to form an anion (e.g., F −, Cl −, etc.). To form a covalent bond, one electron from the halogen and one electron ...
