Therefore, the order of the number of electrons in each shell of the molybdenum(Mo) atom is 2, 8, 18, 13, 1. Therefore, a molybdenum atom will have two electrons in the first shell, eight in the 2nd orbit, and eighteen electrons in the 3rd shell.Īccording to Bohr’s formula, the fourth shell will have twelve electrons but the fourth shell of molybdenum will have thirteen electrons and the remaining one electron will be in the fifth shell. That is, the number of electrons in molybdenum is forty-two. Molybdenum atom electron configuration (Bohr model) The atomic number is the number of electrons in that element. Therefore, the maximum electron holding capacity in the first shell is two, the second shell is eight and the 3rd shell can have a maximum of eighteen electrons. The maximum electrons holding capacity in N orbit is 2n 2 = 2 × 4 2 = 32. The maximum electrons holding capacity in M orbit is 2n 2 = 2 × 3 2 = 18. The maximum electron holding capacity in L orbit is 2n 2 = 2 × 2 2 = 8. The maximum electron holding capacity in K orbit is 2n 2 = 2 × 1 2 = 2. The electron holding capacity of each orbit is 2n 2. K is the name of the first orbit, L is the second, M is the third, and N is the name of the fourth orbit. These circular paths are called orbit(shell). The electrons of the atom revolve around the nucleus in a certain circular path. The complete idea of the orbit is given there. Scientist Niels Bohr was the first to give an idea of the atom’s orbit. Molybdenum atom electron configuration through orbit For example Aufbau principle, Hund’s principle, and Pauli’s exclusion principle.
