An atomic or molecular energy state which cannot accommodate any more particles. The lowest electronic level in any atom is the so-called 1s level. This can take up to 2 electrons (basically the 2 spin states "up" and "down"). Hydrogen only has one electron, so that's no problem. Helium has 2, so that second electron can also go in, OK. But Lithium has 3, so we have to start filling up a new energy state ("2s", then "2p"), because the 1s level is "full".

The second energy level contains how many electrons when it is full?
The second energy level contains eight valance electrons when it's full.
Does alkali metals have a full outer energy level?
No, they don't.
When the outer energy level of an atom is full the element is said to be non reactive or inert is called?
If the outer energy level is full, the element is said to be non reactive and inert. It is stable in nature.
Do all noble gases have a full outermost energy level and zero electronegativity?
yes they do
What dont noble gases normally form chemical bonds?
they have a full outermost energy level.
What is the outermost energy level of an atom is considered full if the level contains?
Outermost energy level is full if there are 8 electrons in the valence shell.
The second energy level contains how many electrons when it is full?
The second energy level contains eight valance electrons when it's full.
Which group on the periodic table is unreactive because its outermost energy level is full?
Noble gases are unreactive with the outermost energy level full.
How do atoms like their outermost energy level?
They can either gain, share, or lose electrons to have a full energy level
What element could have two electrons in their outermost level and be full?
Helium has only 2 electrons and its energy level is full.
Does alkali metals have a full outer energy level?
No, they don't.
When the outer energy level of an atom is full the element is said to be non reactive or inert is called?
If the outer energy level is full, the element is said to be non reactive and inert. It is stable in nature.
How are the outer energy levels of nonmetals different from metals?
Nonmetals almost have a full outer energy level while metals have few electrons in their outer energy level.
Does helium has a full outermost energy level with two electrons?
Yes it does.
What a gas in the rightmost column of the periodic table with a full outer energy level?
Noble gases are the gases in the rightmost column of the Periodic Table that have a full outer energy level. This is why the noble gases do not react with other elements readily. When an atom has a full outer energy level, it means that it has the maximum number of electrons in these outer shells, making it stable.
Do alkali metals have a full outer energy level?
Nope. They sure don't.
What atom has a full outermost energy level that contains two electrons?
helium
