"They needed to figure out the exact paths that the electrons took and how far apart they were from the nucleus ,and they needed to figure out all that crap! " Lmao!

I completed Hon. Chem (Grades A and B) and 1 semester of AP Chem (B) in high school... And I am learning more from this series...

@Puffsmeal they will not hit each other. Electrons are negatively charged and therefore repel one another.

@puffsmeal electrons avoid each other. They have a negative charge, so are opposed to each other. It's kinda like taking the negative sides on two magnets and trying to stick them together. They just push away. (just for a simple representation)

@Londron No problem :)

@Londron It's true that the second shell can hold 8 electrons. Here's the math: " 2*(TheShellsNumber*2) " - Which is equal to 8.
3rd shell can hold 18 electrons
4th shell can hold 32
And so on.

Only having seen basic chemistry at school we more or less saw the I hope familiar thing of, 1 in the closest orbit, 8 on all else.
Any idea where that comes from? Or is is just plain wrong?

Shell 1 can hold 2x1²,
shell 2 can hold 2x2²,
shell 3 can hold 2x3²,
shell 4 can hold 2x4²,
shell 5 can hold 2x5²,
shell 6 can hold 2x6²,
shell 7 can hold 2x7².
It should be : Where 'da fuck are the electrons ???
