Writing Electron Configurations Using Only the Periodic Table
Рет қаралды 591,505
10 жыл бұрынA step-by-step description of how to write the electron configuration for elements using just the Periodic Table.
In order to write the electron configurations using the Periodic Table we first need to know the number of electrons for the each atom. When we write the configuration we'll put these electrons in orbitals around the nucleus of the atom.
Electron configuration notation provides an easy way for scientists to write and communicate how electrons are arranged around the nucleus of an atom. This makes it easier to understand and predict how atoms will interact to form chemical bonds.
You can also use just the Periodic Table to help write the condensed notation elements instead of the Periodic Table. See • Writing Condensed/Abbr...

I’m here cause my few hours of research has still not explained to me why some don’t follow the same pattern, yes because it’s more stable, but why don’t the other elements do it T-T

Thank you very much Wayne Breslyn, you saved me. I was listening my teacher for more than few hours for only to understand The Electron Configuration but I could unfortunately not. But this video I understood everything about it in less than 2 minutes. Only the Electron Configuration for Boron. And I did the rest and watched the rest of video to ensure if I have done it right and it was exactly right. Thank you again and again. Mohamed Osman, Somalia
