2. The S sub-shell has one orbital and an orbital can hold a max of 2 electrons.
The maximum number of electrons in any s sublevel is 2, irrespective of what the principal quantum number, i.e., the number before the s in an electron configuration, may be.
Phosphorus has 5 electrons in its outermost principal energy level.
An element with two energy levels can have a maximum of 8 electrons. The first energy level can hold up to 2 electrons, while the second energy level can hold up to 6 electrons.
The electron configuration of calcium is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 The "second principle energy level" refers in this case to the 2s and 2p orbitals, so it would be a total of 8 electrons.
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy the third energy level is 18. This level has 2 sublevels, s and p, which can hold a total of 18 electrons. The s sublevel can hold 2 electrons, and the p sublevel can hold 6 electrons, so the total is 2 + 6 + 10 = 18 electrons.
The maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in the fourth principal energy level (n=4) is 32. This is because the formula 2n^2 gives the maximum number of electrons that can occupy a particular energy level. So, for n=4, the maximum number of electrons is 2 * 4^2 = 32.

The second energy level can hold a maximum of 8 electrons. This is based on the formula 2n^2, where n is the principal quantum number representing the energy level.
The maximum number of electrons with principal quantum number 4 and angular momentum quantum number 0 would be 2 electrons. This is because for each energy level (n), there can only be one orbital (l=0) present, and each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons (with opposite spins, as per the Pauli exclusion principle).
An energy level of n=4 can hold up to a maximum of 32 electrons. The maximum number of electrons that can occupy a specific energy level is given by 2n^2, where n is the principal quantum number.
The maximum number of electrons in an energy level (and I assume you mean energy shell- with a principal quantum number) is 2n2 where n is the princiapl quantum number This gives the numebr per level of 2, 8, 18, 32, 50
The fourth outer energy level of an atom can contain a maximum of 32 electrons. This is because each energy level can hold a maximum of 2n^2 electrons, where n is the principal quantum number of the energy level. In this case, the fourth energy level has a principal quantum number of 4, so it can hold 2(4^2) = 32 electrons.
The 4th energy level can hold a maximum of 32 electrons. This level can accommodate 2n^2 electrons, where n is the principal quantum number (in this case, n=4).
