Each atom on the Periodic Table has a different number of electrons which corresponds to its element number. The electrons are located in different atomic orbitals, or electron clouds, labeled s, p, d, and f. The numbers of electrons within each orbital is determined by quantum mechanical rules, but can easily be looked up in a table of electron configurations.
Each electron cloud can contain a maximum number of electrons based on the energy level, sublevel, and orbital it occupies according to the rules of quantum mechanics. The maximum number of electrons for a given orbital is designated by the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers.
The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the atomic number. In Mercury's case that number is 80.
2n2 where n is the principal quantum number.
n=1, total 2 (1s2)
n=2 total 8 2s2, 2p6
n=3; total 18 3s2, 3p6, 3d10
It depends on which element the atom is. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons, which is the same as the atomic number.

How many electrons are there in each electron cloud for neon?
How am i supposed 2 no? im the 1 who asked the question!
How many electrons maximum can be in one orbital?
There can only be 2 electrons in each single orbital, and they will be on opposite sides of the electron cloud (orbital).
What charge does the electron cloud of every atom have?
In a neutral atom, the charge on the electron cloud is balanced by the carge on the atom's nucleus. The nucleus has a positive charge proportional to the number of protons in it. This attracts and holds the negatively charged electrons in the electron cloud. And in a neutral atom (not an ion), there will be as many electrons in the electron cloud as protons in the nucleus. The charges will balance.
How many electrons can be the first energy level in the electron cloud hold?
The first energy level in the electron cloud can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
How many electrons are in the electron cloud of the element carbon?
2
How many electrons are in the nucleus of the element tin?
None, electrons are in the electron cloud, not the nucleus
How many electrons does fluorine have located in the electron cloud?
Fluorine has nine electrons located in its electron cloud. These electrons are arranged in different energy levels or shells around the nucleus of the fluorine atom.
How many electrons are in the electron cloud in the element germanium?
Germanium has a total of 32 electrons in different orbitals.
How many electrons does Boron have in a electron cloud?
A boron atom has 5 electrons in its electron cloud. Boron has an atomic number of 5, meaning it has 5 protons and normally 5 electrons to balance the positive charge of the protons.
