I'll try:

it's a listing of all the different types of atoms that there are ... anywhere.

The way the atoms are listed - is by the number of electrons in their outer shell.

The reason to do it that way is that the CHEMICAL properties of an atom are totally dependent on that outer shell.

Since the maximum number of electrons (in that outer shell) is 8

you get a nice, repeating sort of chart that actually makes sense.

How many electrons does iron atom have?

A neutral iron atom has 26 electrons. All iron atoms have 26 protons in their nuclei, which is why their atomic atomic number is 26. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge, so a neutral iron atom has 26 protons and 26 electrons.
