    Rn, 86, radon : 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 4s 2 3d 10 4p 6 5s 2 4d 10 5p 6 6s 2 4f 14 5d 10 6p 6 Og, 118, oganesson : 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 4s 2 3d 10 4p 6 5s 2 4d 10 5p 6 6s 2 4f 14 5d 10 6p 6 7s 2 5f 14 6d 10 7p 6. Note that these electron configurations are given for neutral atoms in the gas phase, which are not the same as the electron ...

  3. Electron configurations of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configurations_of...

    As an approximate rule, electron configurations are given by the Aufbau principle and the Madelung rule. However there are numerous exceptions; for example the lightest exception is chromium, which would be predicted to have the configuration 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 3d 4 4s 2 , written as [Ar] 3d 4 4s 2 , but whose actual configuration given ...

  5. Alkaline earth metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_earth_metal

    The magnesium compound magnesium sulfate was first discovered in 1618 by a farmer at Epsom in England. Strontium carbonate was discovered in minerals in the Scottish village of Strontian in 1790. The last element is the least abundant: radioactive radium , which was extracted from uraninite in 1898.

  6. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    In each term of an electron configuration, n is the positive integer that precedes each orbital letter (helium's electron configuration is 1s 2, therefore n = 1, and the orbital contains two electrons). An atom's nth electron shell can accommodate 2n 2 electrons. For example, the first shell can accommodate two electrons, the second shell eight ...

  7. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    118 chemical elements have been identified and named officially by IUPAC.A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z).

  8. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Starting from the third element, lithium, the first shell is full, so its third electron occupies a 2s orbital, giving a 1s 2 2s 1 configuration. The 2s electron is lithium's only valence electron, as the 1s subshell is now too tightly bound to the nucleus to participate in chemical bonding to other atoms: such a shell is called a "core shell ...

  9. Period (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_(periodic_table)

    Hydrogen readily loses and gains an electron, and so behaves chemically as both a group 1 and a group 17 element. Hydrogen (H) is the most abundant of the chemical elements, constituting roughly 75% of the universe's elemental mass. [1] Ionized hydrogen is just a proton. Stars in the main sequence are mainly composed of hydrogen in its plasma ...
