An atom with 10 electrons will have 2 electron shells. The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, and the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons.
the sodium atom has 3 shells where 2 electrons are in the first shell, 8 in the second and 1 in the third shell; which isn't stable..... and its symbol is Na :)
The valence shell is the outermost shell...and an atom can only have one outer shell.
the sodium atom has 3 shells where 2 electrons are in the first shell, 8 in the second and 1 in the third shell; which isn't stable..... and its symbol is Na :)
A fluorine atom has 2 electron shells. The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, and the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, giving a total of 10 electrons for a fluorine atom.
The second shell of an atom has two sub-shells: the 2s and 2p sub-shells. The 2s sub-shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the 2p sub-shell can hold a maximum of 6 electrons, allowing the second shell to accommodate a total of 8 electrons.
A magnesium atom has 12 electrons arranged in 3 shells. The electron configuration of magnesium is 2-8-2, indicating that it has 2 electrons in the first shell, 8 in the second shell, and 2 in the third shell.
There are 2 electron shells around the nucleus of a beryllium atom. The first shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, and the second shell can hold a maximum of 8 electrons. Since beryllium has 4 electrons, 2 electrons will be in the first shell and the remaining 2 electrons will be in the second shell.

An atom with 16 electrons would have 3 electron shells. The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, and the third shell can hold up to 8 electrons.
If you are asking about the number of electrons then it would be 8. The first shell can hold a maximum number of 2 electrons. The second and third shell would have a maximum of 8 electrons each.
A selenium atom typically contains 34 electrons distributed in different shells around the nucleus. The electrons are arranged in energy levels or shells, with the first shell holding a maximum of 2 electrons, the second shell holding up to 8 electrons, the third shell holding up to 18 electrons, and the fourth shell holding up to 6 electrons for selenium.
