No, its two electrons in the first, 8 electrons in the 2nd and 3rd shell if its stable
Iron has 26 electrons in total. the first electron shell has 2 electrons, the second electron shell has 8 electrons, the third electron shell has 14 electrons and the final shell of iron(Fe) has 2 electrons.
The overall of an atom is a nucleus (protons and neutrons), and 1 or 2 electrons. The rest are for large atoms: an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons, an electron shell, electrons.
Eight electrons fit in the second shell.
2 electrons in the first shell then 3 electrons in the second shell
Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. 2 In the first electron shell, and 5 in the second electron shell.
The first shell can have 2 electrons, the second shell has 8 electrons and the third shell has 8 electron also. No matter what, electron fill up the first shell and then move into the next shell and then the next one. To answer the question, the first shell would have 2 electron and then the second shell would have six.
8 (just in the second shell) but if you're counting all of the electrons, including the first shell, then there are 10 electrons all together. Eight Electrons are the maximum.
Electrons in the outermost energy shell (valence shell) have the most energy.
The maximum number is 8 electrons in the second shell.
Sodium is in the third group in the periodic table. It meens that sodium has three shell. First shell - 2 electrons, second shell - 8 electrons, third shell (outer energy level) - 1 electron.
An electron in the third shell has more energy than the electron in the second shell.
An oxygen atom has eight electrons. The first electron shell can contain two electrons so that shell is filled leaving six electrons left. Since the second electron shell can contain up to eight electrons, the remaining six electrons go into the second shell. Since the second shell is the outermost shell, there are six electron's in the outer energy level.
