• The electronic configuration of an atom
can be predicted from its atomic number.
eg- the atomic number of sodium is 11.
Sodium atoms have 11 protons and
so 11 electrons:
• 2 electrons occupy the first shell
• 8 electrons occupy the second shell
• 1 electron occupies the third shell
OR E.C can be written as 2.8.1
In a diagram:
• each shell is modelled as a circle
• each electron is modelled as a dot or a
cross 7

Properties of metals
Using the description –Explain malleability
and conductivity of electricity.
Malleability-
Metals are malleable because layers of ions can
slide over each other when a force is applied.
Metallic bonding allows the metal to change shape
without shattering.
Conduction of electricity
When a voltage is applied to a metal, the
delocalised electrons travel through the lattice
structure. The movement of these charged
particles forms an electric current.
Answers to Question 5 :
a. A,(2.4); F(2.8.18.32.18.4)-4 electrons in the last shell
b. A(2.4) – its atomic number is 6
c. C(2.8.18.18.7) and D(2.8.18.18.8)- 5 electronic-shells
d. C(2.8.18.18.7) – 7 electrons in the last shell.
e. B(2.8.8) and D(2.8.18.18.8)- complete /full shell of 8 electrons
f. Calcium ;E(2.8.8.2)=20 so atomic no. 20 is Calcium
g. F(2.8.18.32.18.4)= 82 so (Lead) has atomic no 82
h. B(2.8.8), so G (2.8.8.1)=atomic no:19 i.e: potassium
