If we say that electrons travel around the nucleus of an atom in rings or shells, we can assign that ring a limit on how many electrons they can carry. We say that the ring that surrounds the nucleus has room for 2 electrons, then each ring after that has room for 8 electrons. The outer most ring is called the valence ring or valance shell and may or may not be full. Realistically, this might not be the most accurate way to diagramming electron distribution, but it helps us to see why they are where they are on the table and why they bond the way that they do. It also helps us establish the Group number at the top of each column. Let’s look at Carbon (C) – Given that C has an atomic number of 6: How many protons does it have? D How many electrons does it have? E How many are in the first ring? F Second ring? G Draw the number of electrons around each of these elements on your periodic table. What…
The elements in the periodic table are grouped by similar chemical properties, which come from the similarities in the arrangement of their electrons. These electron arrangements can be expressed as generic outer electron configurations, i.e., the electron configuration outside the noble gas core, for all periods in a group using n instead of a specific number. Similarly, the generic Lewis dot structures for each group can be drawn using X to represent a generic element symbol. Match each generic electron arrangement to the appropriate periodic group number. Note that not all of the electron arrangements must be used. 1A (1) X. ns² (n − 1) d¹ - ns² (n − 1) dª ns²np³ 2A (2) •X• ns³ ns2 3A (13) .x. ns² (n − 1) d² ns² (n − 1) d³ - 4A (14) Answer Bank ns² np6 5A (15) ns² np³ X ns²np ns²np¹ 6A (16) ns¹ ns² np² 7A (17) X ns² (n − 1) dº - ns² (n − 1) dº 8A (18)
