How many electrons fit 1st energy level?

The inner electron shell (also known as the s shell) can hold only two electrons. There are only two elements, hydrogen and helium, whose electrons all fit into the first shell.


What is the maximum number of electrons in each of the first three energy levels for the first 20 elements?

The number of electrons that can fit into a particular energy level is 2n^2 (2 times n squared) where the energy level is n. So, for: energy level 1 we have 2 x (1x1) = 2, for energy level 2 we have 2 x (2x2) = 8, for energy level 3 we have 2 x (3x3) = 18. So, 2+8+18= 28 max. electrons in the first 3 energy levels.

How are atomic number and mass number alike?

The Atom will try to acquire electrons to fit it's needs. When it acquires electrons the amount in the orbit will either (if your lucky) perfectly meet the electron orbit needs. Mostly it will be uneven (one extra). The atom will try to get rid of that/those extra electrons by bonding with a different atom that meets it's needs. This is why many atoms readily bond with others. Hope this was helpful.
