How many electrons are in the highest occupied energy level of a 7A element?

7 electrons would be in the highest occupied energy level of a 7A element. Group 7A elements have 7 valence electrons, which occupy the highest energy level of the atom.


Which element has the highest number of electrons?

Because an atom of element has the same number of electrons as of protons and the number of protons in an atom is the same as the atomic number of the atom, the answer to this is whichever element has the highest atomic number yet synthesized.


What is the highest sublevel electrons in the element Promethium an f block element occupy?

The highest sublevel that Promethium can have is 4f. It is possible for 14 electrons to be placed around Promethium, since the elements in this sublevel each have 7 orbitals.
