the no. of electron shells in an atom varies for every element in the periodic table, depending on its no. of electrons in the atom. the no. of shells of an atom of an element ca be derived through the period of the periodic table. elements in the 1st period has only 1 shell and so forth.
Francium has seven electron shells; electrons per shell: 2, 8, 18, 32, 18, 8, 1.
Rubidium has 5 electron shells. The electron configuration of rubidium is [Kr]5s1.
A Sodium atom has three shells. For future reference, this can be discovered later by looking at which period an element falls in. For example, all group 1 elements have 1 shell, all group 2 elements have two shells, and so on.
Helium has only 1 shell with two electrons.

All elements in the first period have 1 shell. That's hydrogen and helium.

The number of electron shells in a normal Lithium atom is 2. It has an electron configuration of 1s22s1
Atoms can have as many electron shells as they need. The first electron shell can only contain 2 electrons but the rest can contain 8. Electron arrangement patterns down a group : the # of complete electrons shells increases by 1. The # of group is the same as the # of electrons in the outer shell. (ex. Group 2 there will be 2 electrons in the outer shell) Electron arrangement patterns across a period : the # of complete electron shells stays the same. The # of electrons increases by 1 each time. When a new period starts, that's when a new shell is added. Hope this was helpful :)

It has 11 electrons total. These are in 3 shells.
Helium has only 1 shell with two electrons.
The period of elements in the periodic table refers to the horizontal rows that categorize elements based on the number of electron shells they have. Each period corresponds to the number of electron shells an element's atoms possess, ranging from 1 to 7 as we move from left to right across the table.
