How many shells or orbitals does an atom of silicon have?
Shells: 3 Orbitals: 9
Number of electron shells in silicon?
the electronic structure of silicon is [Ne] 3s2 3p2 in short form. In full it is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p2 so there are 5 orbitals with electrons in.In the electron shell school system, you would say there are 3 electron "shells" in use, as it has a full 2/2, a full 8/8 and 4/8 of the 3rd "shell".
How many electron containing orbitals does iodine have?
36
How many orbitals are filled in a silicon atom?
The 1s, 2s, 2p and 3s
What is the Electron shell arrangement of a Silicon Atom?
what is the arrangement of electrons in an atom of a silicon
What are the different electronic orbitals?
atomic orbitals and electron orbitals
How many shells or orbitals does an atom of silicon have?
Shells: 3 Orbitals: 9
Nitrogen has one electron in each of what orbitals?
2 p orbitals
Which element has 28 electrons in its atomic orbitals?
silicon
Electrons move around the nucleus in paths called what?
Orbitals. Not to be confused with orbits. They don't actually move in 'paths' either. Due to their nature, you cannot determine the exact location of an electron and still know where it will be next. (See "Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle") Orbitals actually are mathematical functions which describe the probability of finding an electron in a given space.
Where do the electron go in an atom?
Into the orbitals.

What is the arrangement of electrons in the electron cloud?
The electron configuration of an atom is the arrangement of electrons in the electron cloud around the nucleus of the atom. This is an indication of the different orbitals that are occupied by electrons in the atom.
The electron cloud is divided into what?
The electron cloud is divided into s, p, d, and f orbitals. These orbitals also occur at different principle energy levels.
Electrons are organized in a series of what around the nucleus of an atom?
Electron shells, orbitals, and sub-orbitals.
About the electron configuration?
Electron configuration for an atom is the distribution of electrons on atomic orbitals.
What do you call a collection of electron orbitals within an atom?
It is called an electron shell.
