Chase Mercier, Mason Shorkey, Chapman Toman Bonding: Role of the Electron
Electrons occupy spaces called electron shells, or energy shells. Electron shells: Generally fixed regions around the nucleus. Electrons have a negative charge Role of the Electron
Can only have a maximum of seven electrons. The ones that are closest to the nucleus are most strongly attracted to positive charge. The ones that are farther out are less securely held and are more likely to connect with different atoms. Electrons
Shells can only hold so many electrons. The closer to the nucleus, the lesser the shell can hold. The only shell that matters during bonding is the outermost shell. (Valence Shell) Internal shells are not involved. Electrons Shells
