This investigation provides an overview of the influence of momentum on the atomic structure characteristics of group 3 elements in the periodic table. Group 3 elements, including scandium, yttrium, and lanthanum, exhibit distinct properties that are influenced by the momentum of electrons within their atomic structure. Momentum affects electron distribution across energy levels, impacting atomic stability, reactivity, and bonding behaviors. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in determining magnetic properties and spectral features observed in group 3 elements. Understanding these effects enhances our knowledge of atomic structure dynamics and their implications in chemistry and materials science. This overview synthesizes current research to clarify the relationship between momentum and the characteristics of group 3 elements atomic structures. The research also shows the trend of energy level relationship with momentum for the outermost electron of the lanthanum atom, revealing the atomic orbital values of 1.97 * 10–7 for 6s for energy level, whereas for momentum value we have 1.21 * 10–19 for 5d and 7.51 * 10–25 for 6s and the process illustrates the electron volts and momentum value with different principal numbers and orbital shell levels. The behavior of the system follows the same trend other of increase in electron volt as well as a decrease in momentum value. Increase in the atomic orbit with an increase in momentum, which demonstrates the trend of step manner of energy level of actinium (AC) atom in relation to the momentum of the outmost electron. The energy level of 6d is –2o47 * 10–7 and 7s value of 1.48*10–17 whereas the momentum value of 1.42 * 10–24 for 6d and 8.69 * 10–25 for 7s orbital.
