8 total electrons
The K shell of an atom can hold up to 2 electrons.
there are two electrons the first shell hold
Shell 1: Two electrons Shell 2: Eight electrons Shell 3: Eight electrons Shell 4: Eighteen electrons
The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, and the third shell can hold up to 18 electrons.
The first shell of an atom can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
The K shell of an atom can hold up to 2 electrons.

According to one of Lewis' theories, each shell has a maximum number of electrons using the formula 2n2 where n = the shell number. For example: 1st shell = 2(1)2 = 2 electrons maximum; 2nd shell = 2(2)2 = 8 electrons maximum.
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 first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, and the third shell can hold up to 18 electrons.
The first shell in a Bohr model can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
The first shell of an atom can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
In the first shell there are two electrons and in the second shell there are six electrons, but only the electrons in the second (outer) shell are valence electrons.
An atom with 10 electrons will have 2 electron shells. The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, and the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons.
20 electrons would need 4 shells. The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, the third shell can hold up to 18 electrons, and the fourth shell can hold up to 32 electrons.
Two. An inner shell contains 2 electrons; and an outer shell contains 2 electrons on its near side and 4 more electrons on its outer side. Total of 8 electrons.
