Atoms have electrons that need to be distributed somehow, even Argon. Ok so where are these electrons in an atom of Ar?
In the case of Argon the number of electons per shell is 2,8,8. Besides the distribution of electrons there is a lot of funny facts about Argon that most don't know. Let me show you...
