N2H2. N has 5 + 5 = 10 electrons H has 1 + 1 = 2 electrons. Total of 12 electrons. I would distribute the 12 as follows: H:N::N:H which accounts for 8. Place a pair of unshared electron on the first N and a pair of unshared electrons on the second N. That will add 4 more ...

physics
in an electron microscope, a tungstun cathode with work function 4.5 eV is heated to release electrons that are then initially at rest just outside the cathode. The electrons are accelerated by a potential difference to create a beam of electrons with a de Broglie wavelength ...

how do you determine how many electrons are in the highest occupied energy level? For example many electrons are in the highest occupied energy level Group 3A Count them up. For example, you know 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6, etc etc. You can go to www.webelements.com and click on ...

Chemistry
Think about the electron configuration. 12 Mg 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 26 Fe 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d6 4s2 You can see that if Mg loses two electrons it is left with a filled shell of 8 electrons in N=2. Fe, on the other hand, can lose two electrons from 4s2 and have 6 electrons ...

electrons in atoms
Isn't there a standard formula for the energy change involved? Then, energy=Planck's constant* c/wavelength ?
