Sulfur has six electrons in its third electron shell.
The number of electrons in a shell is 2n2, where n=shell number. So for the first shell, there is a maximum of 2 electrons.
Its atomic number is 7, and so it needs a further 3 electrons to fill its outer 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.
6 electrons From the inside out, two, eight and eight.

Carbon has four valence electrons, so it will need four more electrons to fill its outer shell.
Its atomic number is 7, and so it needs a further 3 electrons to fill its outer shell.
There 8 electrons in the second 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.
Beryllium will lose 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule (to fill its outer shell).
Carbon has four valence electrons, so it will need four more electrons to fill its outer shell.
