32 electrons on the fourth shell of radon.
Fourth
The fourth outer energy level of an atom can contain a maximum of 32 electrons. This is because each energy level can hold a maximum of 2n^2 electrons, where n is the principal quantum number of the energy level. In this case, the fourth energy level has a principal quantum number of 4, so it can hold 2(4^2) = 32 electrons.
2n2 = 2x42 = 32 electrons
1st energy level- 2 electrons 2nd energy level- 8 electrons 3rd energy level- 18 electrons To calculate the number of electrons other energy levels can hold, use the formula 2n^2. For example, to calculate the number of electrons the fourth level can hold, the equation would be 2(4)^2. This means that the fourth energy can hold 32 electrons. Same process for other levels.
The fourth energy level can hold up to thirty-two (32) electrons.

The fourth energy level holds a maximum of 32 electrons.
Fourth
32 electrons is the maximum number that can simultaneously maintain the fourth energy level in an atom's electron shell. The equation used to find this number is: 2 x n2 in which "n" is the energy level being referred too. To find the maximum electron count for the fourth energy level we insert the number four in for "n" then solve: 2 x (4)2 = 32 electrons
The fourth energy level can hold up to thirty-two (32) electrons.

The electronic configuration of calcium is 2, 8, 8, 2 and the fourth energy level has 2 electrons.
2n2 = 2x42 = 32 electrons
The atomic number of calcium is 20 as it has 20 protons and 20 electrons, they are located outside the Nucleus in the orbits known as energy levels, and are commonly known as shells of the atom. in the first energy level there are 2 electrons, in the second energy level there are 8 electron, in the third energy level there are 8 electrons, and in the fourth energy level there are 2 electrons.
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.
