According to the Bohr's atomic model the number of electrons present in a orbit can be defined by p(n.n) i.e p.n square,where n=number of orbit.hence we can calculate the number of electrons present in second orbit i.e 8.
Your question should be like that how many electrons can exist in second energy levels.
The answer is 8 electron.
You can see:
K=2 e = subshell 1s2
L=8 e = subshell 1s2,2s2 2p6
M=18 e = subhell 1s2,2s2 2p6,3s2 3p6 3d10
The maximum number of electrons in the second energy level is eight. The second energy level contains one 2s orbital and three 2p orbitals, and each orbital can contain a maximum of two electrons.
2s^2 2p^6
A maximum of 8 electrons total will occupy the second energy level of an atom.
Not Sure...
Think the first level has 2 and the rest has 8.
2s^2 2p^6
8 total it is.
8 electrons.

8 electrons
There are no electrons present in a helium atom in its second energy level.
The second orbit of an atom can hold up to 8 electrons.
Sulfur has 16 electrons. It has two electrons in its first energy level, eight in its second energy level, and six in its third energy level, making a total of 16 electrons.
Atomic number is the number of protons. In a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. So, in your example, the number of electrons in this atom is 14. The first energy shell can take 2 electrons, the second energy shell can take 8 electrons, and the third energy shell can take 18 electrons. If there are 14 total electrons, 10 would be found in the first two energy shells, leaving 4 for the third energy shell.
8
An atom with seven electrons will have five electrons in the second energy level.
A boron atom has three electrons in its second energy level.
8 I think
There are no electrons present in a helium atom in its second energy level.
there are 2 in the first there are 8 in the second there are 5 in the third
well, on the periodic table of elements a chlorine atom has 17 electrons, usually the first level holds up to two electrons and the second level holds up to 8. so if my figuring is correct there should be fifteen electrons on the second energy level.
There are 8 electrons in the third energy level of a calcium atom.
Calcium atoms have 8 electrons in the second energy level. However, they are not the valence electrons. The outermost electrons in a calcium atom in the ground state are 2 4s electrons. So calcium atoms in the ground state have 2 valence electrons in the fourth energy level.
None in the ground state atom, which has an electronic configuration of 1s2
The third energy level of an atom can hold eight electrons.
there are 3 energy levels in a sodium atom. in the first one there are 2 electrons, in the second one there are 8 electrons and in the third one there is 1 electron.
