Electronic structure

Description

"This video explores the electronic structure of an atom. Electrons are arranged in energy levels or shells around the nucleus, and each shell can hold a maximum number of electrons. Using the periodic table to help, the number of shells is equal to the period number and the number of outer-shell electrons is the same as the element’s group.
