Chlorine has 17 electrons. According to the modern atomic theory, how many electrons are found in n = 2?

8 electrons

Explanation:

According to the modern atomic theory, the electronic configuration of chlorine (e⁻ = 17, Z = 17) is:

1 s²             → 2 electrons

2 s² 2 p⁶    → 8 electrons

3 s² 3 p⁵    → 7 electrons  

Total: 17 electrons

In n = 1 chlorine has 2 electrons, in n = 2 chlorine has 8 electrons and in n = 3 it has 7 electrons.

Therefore, in n = 2 chlorine has 8 electrons (2 from s orbital and 6 from p orbital).

the part of the wave he is travelling on is the crest

the total distance that martina travels that day is

(distance from home to mom's office) plus (distance from mom's office to school)

plus (distance from school to library) plus (distance from library to friend's house)

plus (distance from friend's house to martina's house).

(we don't know what any of these distance actually is.)
