Generally speaking, it would be 8 electrons, but there are many exceptions.

Why do electrons jump when heated?

electrons jump energy levels becouse each level has a specific amount of energy needed inorder to be in that level. when an electron gets enough energy it jumps to the next level it can possible be in with that amount of energy.


How many energy levels are needed for a lithium atom's three electrons when the atom is in its ground state?

Lithium has three electrons, two in the inner shell and a single one ouside that, so there are two energy levels. See the link below


How does the number of electrons in the outer energy levels relate to the position of an element in the periodic table?

Electrons in the outer most energy level is called "valence electrons." Groups are the columns of the periodic table. The more valence electrons (up to 8), the closer to the right. The number of electrons needed to make an atom stable is 8. (Minus Hydrogen and Helium, which only need 2 electrons to be stable.)


Regions where electrons are located?

Electrons are bound inside an electrostatic potential well around the nucleus; ext. energy is needed for the electron to escape.


How many electrons are needed to fill the second outer energy level?

8 electrons


Why is the ionization energy needed to remove the first two electrons from Magnesium atoms relatively low?

The ionization energy needed to remove the first two electrons from Magnesium atoms is relatively low because these electrons are in the outermost energy levels and experience less electron-electron repulsion, making them easier to remove compared to inner electrons. Additionally, Magnesium has a relatively small effective nuclear charge, which further reduces the attraction between the nucleus and the outer electrons, making them easier to remove.

What is needed to excite electrons?

For example when the electron absorb energy.


How many electrons are needed to fill up the first energy level?

The first energy level can take a maximum of two electrons.


What is one indicator that electrons in atoms are limited to specific energy levels?

One indicator is that electrons in atoms can only occupy certain discrete energy levels, as seen in the discrete lines of an atomic emission spectrum where electrons emit photons of specific energies when transitioning between energy levels. This quantization of energy levels is a key feature of the quantum mechanical description of electrons in atoms.
