This is a brief overview of how to find the electron configuration of an element. I made this for my sister Rebecca but I thought it could help others as well. Sorry for the bad quality and me not being able to speak.

  • dont u mean 2 elements in the first row? im confused cuz isnt there 3 elements in the first row not electrons?

  • @cheergurlx86 There are 2 elements in the first row, the thing to remember though is that each element has one more electron than the one before it starting with "H" and moving to the right. So you can count the number of elements and electrons at the same time. Hope that helps.
