What is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1?
Which element is being studied as a cheaper alternative to lithium batteries? This time give the full name of the element.
What is sodium?
In which period and which group is Cu located in?
What is the 4th period and the 11th group?
Why does the 4th shell have a maximum capacity of 32 electrons?
The s subshell can hold 2 electrons
The p subshell can hold 6 electrons
The d subshell can hold 10 electrons
The f subshell can hold 14 electrons
2+6+10+14 = 32 electrons maximum
