Three (3) electrons in this energy level.
The second energy level contains eight valance electrons when it's full.
Third energy level
The valance energy level contains 4 electrons in carbon.
The total number of electrons in Phosphorus (P) is 15 (its atomic number). The first energy level contains 2, the second energy level contains 8, and the third energy level contains 5.

first energy level contains only S shell that can accomadate 2 electrons where as 2nd energy level contains S shell and P shell as well which can accomadate 2 and 6(3X2) electrons respectively..so the answer is 8 for 2nd energy level. (or) No.of electrons in any main energy level = 2n2 Here n = orbit (or energy level) number In our question , n = 2 No.of electrons in 2nd energy level = 2(2)2 = 8
The lowest energy level that has F orbitals is the fourth energy level. The Atomic orbital of any atom only contains 2 electrons.
The outer energy level is in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus. Each ring that surrounds the nucleus is an energy level and contains a different number of electrons.
n = 1: 2 electrons n = 2: 8 electrons n = 3: 3 electrons
The innermost energy level always contains two electrons and the rest are arranged in 8s. for example the energy levels of calcium- 2,8,8,2. calcium contains 20 electrons. once the energy levels are filled upto 8 electrons then we move from onto the next energy level. hope this makes sense lol :)
