The third shell........nucleus
The third level of an atom can hold a maximum of 18 electrons.
No atom can hold 18 electrons in its outer energy shell - there is the valence rule, stating that the maximum for the outer shell is 8 electrons.
The third shell can hold a maximum of 18 electrons.
The third shell, also known as the M shell, can hold a maximum of 18 electrons. It consists of the 3s, 3p, and 3d orbitals, accommodating a total of 18 electrons when fully filled.
The first shell (K shell) can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell (L shell) can hold up to 8 electrons, the third shell (M shell) can hold up to 18 electrons, and the fourth shell (N shell) can hold up to 32 electrons.
The third electron shell can hold a maximum of 18 electrons.
The first energy level can hold up to 2 electrons, the second can hold up to 8 electrons, the third can hold up to 18 electrons, and the fourth can hold up to 32 electrons, following the 2n^2 rule where n is the energy level number.
The third shell of an atom can hold a maximum of 18 electrons. This shell consists of three subshells - s, p, and d - with each subshell being able to accommodate a certain number of electrons. The s subshell can hold up to 2 electrons, the p subshell can hold up to 6 electrons, and the d subshell can hold up to 10 electrons, totaling 18 electrons in the third shell.
I believe its 18 electrons on the 3rd orbital shell
The third energy level of an atom can hold eight electrons.
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy the third energy level is 18. This level has 2 sublevels, s and p, which can hold a total of 18 electrons. The s sublevel can hold 2 electrons, and the p sublevel can hold 6 electrons, so the total is 2 + 6 + 10 = 18 electrons.
The third energy level can hold a maximum of 18 electrons. This is based on the formula 2n^2, where n is the principal quantum number (in this case, n=3).
