What do atoms of less reactivity tend to have?

For one, the atom's outer circle is completely filled with the maximum number of electrons - it's valence orbitals are filled.


The first energy of an atom can hold . electrons?

I assume you are referring to valence electrons (the "outermost" shell varies widely in the number of electrons it can hold, the valence electrons are a subset of this which are responsible for chemical bonding and reactivity).The number of valence electrons can only be from 1 electron to 8 electrons, these are divided between the s and p orbitals of a shell (each orbital can hold no more than 2 electrons).


What are the maximum number of electrons found in the first shell and second shell?

First orbital can be occupied by a total of 2 electrons and the second orbital can be occupied by a total of 8 electrons. 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 ( what element is this ? )
