in the first shell there are 2 electrons

there is only one shell because the rule is first shell 2 second shell 8 third shell 8 forth shell whats left unless it is a transition metal then their is always two on the out side unless in is copper or chromium then there is just one and the third shell has the leftovers up to 18 .

sorry i got a little cared away
