Research Elements No · atomic number 102 Actinide · period 7 [Rn] 5f14 7s2 Shells: 2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 8, 2 Valence electrons: 2 in the outer shell (7s2), and 14 in 5f14 Green dots are the outer shell's s and p electrons. Softer green dots are the d electrons of transition metals, and the d and f electrons of lanthanides and actinides: they often take part in bonding, but not always. Grey dots are the core. Ground-state configuration from the NIST Atomic Spectra Database (A. Kramida, Yu. Ralchenko, J. Reader and the NIST ASD Team).
