Rhenium (Re). Diagram of the nuclear composition,electron configuration,chemical data,and valence orbitals of an atom of rhenium-186 (atomic number: 75),an isotope of this element. The nucleus consists of 75 protons (red) and 111 neutrons (orange). 75 electrons (white) successively occupy available electron shells (rings). Rhenium is a transition metal in group 7,period 6,and the d-block of the periodic table. It has a melting point of 3186 degrees Celsius. The trends across the transition metals are due to electrons filling an inner d-subshell (here,within the 5th ring),shielding the outer (valence) electrons from the increasing nuclear charge | |
