(It's #49) Without drawing the atom, how many energy levels does it have? 1 3 5 7 Find Indium (In) on the Periodic Table. (It's #49) Without drawing the atom, how many electrons are in its outer energy level? 1 3 5 7 Using your Periodic Table... Fill in the blanks. You will use the following as answers. If the answer is a number, but is NOT a whole number, use TWO decimal numbers (ex - 40.08). If the answer is the name of an element, make sure to format it as follows: Name-# (The number should be the mass number) 7 7 7 7 14 14.01 Oxygen-15 16.00 7 8 8 75 74.92 Arsenic-75 33 33 Use the following information to answer the rest of the questions.
