If there is an extra electron in the valence level then the electron is in the excited state and is carrying more energy. If the atom is normal then it is in the ground stte and contains low energy.

The second energy level contains how many electrons when it is full?
The second energy level contains eight valance electrons when it's full.
How many electrons can be held in the second energy level of atoms and how can this be determined?
first energy level contains only S shell that can accomadate 2 electrons where as 2nd energy level contains S shell and P shell as well which can accomadate 2 and 6(3X2) electrons respectively..so the answer is 8 for 2nd energy level. (or) No.of electrons in any main energy level = 2n2 Here n = orbit (or energy level) number In our question , n = 2 No.of electrons in 2nd energy level = 2(2)2 = 8
Which is the lowest energy level that contains d orbitals?
The lowest energy level that has F orbitals is the fourth energy level. The Atomic orbital of any atom only contains 2 electrons.
What element contains three unpaired electrons in its third energy levels?
aresenic

How many electrons does carbon have in the highest energy level?
The valance energy level contains 4 electrons in carbon.
How many electrons does phosphorus have in its outermost principal energy level?
The total number of electrons in Phosphorus (P) is 15 (its atomic number). The first energy level contains 2, the second energy level contains 8, and the third energy level contains 5.
What does carbon contain?
It contains electrons, neutrons, protons, and energy.
Which energy level contains the most electrons in an aluminum atom?
=== ===
How are the electrons arranged in energy levels?
The innermost energy level always contains two electrons and the rest are arranged in 8s. for example the energy levels of calcium- 2,8,8,2. calcium contains 20 electrons. once the energy levels are filled upto 8 electrons then we move from onto the next energy level. hope this makes sense lol :)
What sort of energy does a moving cycle contain?
It contains kinetic energy mainly. Potential energy is relative to its position
What element contains two electrons in its third energy level?
mg
What contains 8 electrons in the outermost energy level?
Noble gases (except for helium which has 2 valence electrons).
An atom contains seven electrons in its outermost energy level the atom is what?
The question is somewhat vague. If the question were written as an atom contains seven electrons in the outermost energy level and that outermost shell is a p-shell then the atom is a halogen. If the atom contains seven electrons in the outermost energy level and that outermost shell is a d-shell or f-shell then the atom is a metal.
What atom has a full outermost energy level that contains two electrons?
helium
