2 electrons.
The second shell of an atom has two sub-shells: the 2s and 2p sub-shells. The 2s sub-shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the 2p sub-shell can hold a maximum of 6 electrons, allowing the second shell to accommodate a total of 8 electrons.
The azimuthal quantum number ( l ) for electrons in a sub-shell is determined by the type of sub-shell. For the 5p sub-shell, ( l ) equals 1, as ( p ) corresponds to ( l = 1 ). Thus, all electrons present in the 5p sub-shell have an azimuthal quantum number ( l = 1 ).
The designation of the fifth sub-shell is 5s, 5p, 5d, and 5f, corresponding to the different types of orbitals that can exist in that energy level. Each type of orbital has a specific shape and can hold a certain number of electrons: s (2 electrons), p (6 electrons), d (10 electrons), and f (14 electrons). Thus, the fifth energy level can accommodate a maximum of 50 electrons when considering all of its sub-shells.
Manganese (Mn) has a total of 25 electrons, and its electron configuration is [Ar] 3d^5 4s^2. In the 3d sub-shell, manganese has 5 electrons.
== Answer== Generally, each sub-shell has its own energy. The sub-shells, listed in order of energy with the number of orbitals in that sub-shell, with the number of electrons each one occupies, are:1s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons2s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons2p: 3 orbitals, 6 electrons3s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons3p: 3 orbitals, 6 electrons4s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons3d: 5 orbitals, 10 electrons4p: 3 orbitals, 6 electronsetc.So, in the first four separate energy levels or sub-shell (1s, 2s, 2p, and 3s) there are 2 + 2+ 6 + 2 = 12 electrons. Note that in these first four sub-shells there are 6 orbitals (with 2 electrons each).
The second shell of an atom has two sub-shells: the 2s and 2p sub-shells. The 2s sub-shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the 2p sub-shell can hold a maximum of 6 electrons, allowing the second shell to accommodate a total of 8 electrons.
A number of electrons.
The orbit or electron shell closest to the nucleus is the 1s sub-shell. It can hold 2 electrons before the 2s sub-shell is filled. H and He have their electrons in this shell (the 1s)

Silver (Ag) has an atomic number of 47, and its electron configuration is [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s¹. The sub-shell being filled by silver is the 4d sub-shell, which is fully filled with 10 electrons. Additionally, the single electron in the 5s sub-shell contributes to its chemical properties.
