The reason that the 11th electron of the sodium atom is located in the third energy level rather than the second energy level is that the second energy level can only hold a maximum of how many electrons?
- my answer is 3electrons, correct me if i'm wrong please!
Answer:
The lowest level holds 2, the next (2nd) level holds 8, so the 11th electron has to go into the 3rd level
absolutely not, the first energy level can hold 2, the second holds 8, the third holds 18, the fourth holds 32, and so on and so forth. the electron configuration for sodium is 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s1
