ELEMENT HOMEWORK:i need to figure out what is the answer for ..
4. the number of electrons can be held in the first orbit ( closest to the nucleus) 5. the number of electrons that can be held in the second orbit. 6. the number of electrons that can be held in the third orbit. The worksheet doesnt provide answer choices to fill it out. Anyways, i have 8 problems, 5 problems are completed. 3 incomplete problems for you to help me ;] By the way, the book doesnt show any clue for it because the worksheet isnt part of the book. |

QUOTE 4. the number of electrons can be held in the first orbit ( closest to the nucleus) 5. the number of electrons that can be held in the second orbit. 6. the number of electrons that can be held in the third orbit ah, i remember this! the first orbit is 2, the second orbit is 4, and for some reason i think the 3rd one is 16...but everyone else is saying 8, so you better go with that |

the first three are 2, 8 and 8. its not four, even tho it would make lots of sense and be easier, its not.
