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

How many d electrons can a second energy level hold?
The second energy level of atoms can hold a maximum of 8 electrons.
What of an element is determined experimentally by bombardment of atoms in the vapor phase with a stream of electrons?
The answer that you wish to acquire is ionization energy. pretty sure at least. ;)
Who determined probability location of electrons in atoms?
Erwin Schrodinger
How many atoms can he second energy level hold?
2s^2 2p^6 8 electrons total
Sharing of electrons in the outer energy levels of two atoms?
The sharing of electrons in the outer energy levels of two atoms is called bonding.
An atoms second energy level can hold up to how many electrons?
Maximum of 8 electrons in second energy level.
How many d electrons can a second energy level hold?
The second energy level of atoms can hold a maximum of 8 electrons.
How many electrons does calcium have in the second energy level?
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.
How many electrons can an atoms second energy level hold?
8
The ability of atoms to combine with other atoms is determined by?
The number of electrons of both atoms and its valence number.
What is the total number of electrons needed to completely fill all of the orbitals in an atoms second principal energy level?
8 electrons
What is an element whose atoms contain 4 electrons in the second energy level?
Carbon. Carbon is in the second period, so it has electrons in its second energy level, and it is in the fourth group in the second energy level, so it has 4 electrons.

The chemical behavior of atoms is determined by the?
The chemical behavior is determined largely by the number of valence electrons.

What is the maxium of numbers in a second energy level?
if you're talking about atoms, 8 electrons can sit in the second energy level. two sit in the 2s orbital and 6 in the 2p orbital.
