Each shell of an atom can hold only a certain number of electrons. The very first shell, the most basic shell, can only hold two.
using the formula 2n2 the answer is 8.
2 electrons
8
Your question is a bit vague, but if you are enquiring about the first electron shell in an atom, it holds a maximum of two electrons.
No it can only hold up to 2. You have a rule for finding the maximum of electrons in every single shell. It is 2 *(shellnumber)2. Shell number 1 = 2 electrons Shell number 2 = 8 electrons Shell number 3 = 18 electrons Shell number 4 = 32 electrons Shell number 5 = 50 electrons Shell number 6 = 72 electrons Shell number 7 = 98 electrons Shell number above does for the moment not exist.
The bohr model of an atom shows the number of electrons, neutrons, and protons contained in the atom. Each electron is in an orbital (the lines), and the protons and neutrons are contained in the nucleus (the center thingy).
the O major shell can hold 1 electron
8
8 electrons maximum
Maximum 32 electrons.

Each inner energy level of an atom can hold a maximum number of electrons. Electrons orbit around the nucleus of an atom in shells. Each shell has a set maximum number of electrons it can hold, and the shell has to be completely filled before electrons can start filling up the next shell.
A nucleus can have up to seven shells and the maximum each shell can hold is 2N^2. The maximum number of electrons found in any shell of known elements is 32.
I assume you are referring to valence electrons (the "outermost" shell varies widely in the number of electrons it can hold, the valence electrons are a subset of this which are responsible for chemical bonding and reactivity).The number of valence electrons can only be from 1 electron to 8 electrons, these are divided between the s and p orbitals of a shell (each orbital can hold no more than 2 electrons).
The sodium atom (Na) has 11 electrons. The electron configuration of sodium is 2-8-1. The third noble gas shell is the second energy level or shell, which can hold a maximum of 8 electrons. Therefore, the number of electrons in the third noble gas shell of sodium is 1.
If you are asking about the number of electrons then it would be 8. The first shell can hold a maximum number of 2 electrons. The second and third shell would have a maximum of 8 electrons each.
The first shell can hold two, the second and beyond can hold 8.
The first shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 while the third shell can also hold a maximum of 8.
