Type answer...
7
Multiple Select
What is the atomic mass?
Protons
Neutrons
Electrons
8
Electrons move in specific areas outside the nucleus
Orbit = to move around (like the earth orbits around the sun)
Each orbital can only hold a certain amount of electrons
9
S orbital
The first orbital is the S orbital
It can only hold 2 electrons
10
P orbital
The second orbital is the P orbital
It can only hold 6 electrons
11
D orbital
The third orbital is the D orbital
It can only hold 10 electrons
12
F orbital
It can only hold 14 electrons
13
Using the periodic table to understand electron configuration
s orbital = blue
p orbital = green
d orbital = pink
f orbital = yellow
14
How to write electron configuration
Identify the row number
Identify the orbital
Identify the number of electrons in the orbital (based on the position on the periodic table)
Write out all configurations for the elements prior
