Yes Sir G that would be correct (not your post right above this one, but further up [img]smile.gif[/img] ). I found this for you, it has the number of electrons in ech "level" listed [img]smile.gif[/img]

You canīt think that way. The number of electrons in each level would be 2,8,18,32,32 etc. How they fill up is completly different... Itīd be like this: 2,8,8,2-->2,8,9,2-->2,8,10,2.....-->2,8,18,3...-->2,8,18,8-->2,8,18,8,1. Itīs all a matter of energy [img]smile.gif[/img]
