As far as I know, the 1st Atom shell holds 2 Electrons, and each shell after that holds 8 Electrons... The answer above is incorrect . The first one holds 2 the second one holds 8 and the third one holds 18 Actually the first person is correct, it does go 2,8,8 but after that it changes, but is very difficult to work out how many after that
What else can I help you with?
How many electrons can the K shell of an atom hold?
The K shell of an atom can hold up to 2 electrons.
How many electrons can there be in each of the four shells surrounding an atom?
Shell 1: Two electrons Shell 2: Eight electrons Shell 3: Eight electrons Shell 4: Eighteen electrons
How many electrons are in the fourth principal shell of a cadmium atom?
The fourth principal shell (n=4) can hold a maximum of 32 electrons. Cadmium has an atomic number of 48, so it has 48 electrons distributed across various energy levels/shells. Therefore, in the fourth principal shell of a cadmium atom, there are 32 electrons.
How many electrons will the first shell hold?
there are two electrons the first shell hold
How many electrons can the second shell of an atom hold?
First Shell always has 2 electrons. Second shell onwards can have up to a maximum of 8 electrons.
How many electrons can the K shell of an atom hold?
The K shell of an atom can hold up to 2 electrons.

The third electron shell can hold a maximum of 18 electrons.
The second electron shell of an atom can hold a maximum of?
The second electron shell of an atom can hold a maximum of 8 electrons.
How many electrons can there be in the 2nd shell of an atom?
The second shell is 2S, 2P which can hold 8 total (2+6).
What is the number of electrons that can occupy the second shell of an atom?
The second shell can hold eight electrons.
What atom can hold 18 electrons in its outer level?
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.
If k and L shell of an atom are full then what would be the number of electrons in an atom?
If the K and L shells of an atom are full, the atom will have 18 electrons. The K shell can hold 2 electrons and the L shell can hold 8 electrons, totaling 10 electrons in both shells. Therefore, if both the K and L shells are full, there will be 18 electrons in the atom.
