What is the maximum number of electrons that can be present in each shell or subshell?

The maximum number of electrons that can be present in each shell or subshell is determined by the formula 2n2, where n is the principal quantum number of the shell or subshell.


What is the numbers of electrons in each shell?

According to one of Lewis' theories, each shell has a maximum number of electrons using the formula 2n2 where n = the shell number. For example: 1st shell = 2(1)2 = 2 electrons maximum; 2nd shell = 2(2)2 = 8 electrons maximum.


How many electrons can be accommodated in penultimate shell?

The penultimate shell can accommodate a maximum of 8 electrons. This is based on the maximum number of electrons that can occupy each subshell within the penultimate shell (s = 2 electrons, p = 6 electrons).


How many electrons can an atom have in each shell?

2 in the first shell .every shell after that can have a maximum of 8.


How many of atoms are in the 3rd shell of an atom with 4 shells?

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.


What is the maximum number of electrons found in any shell of the known elements?

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.


Each shell surrounding an atom is limited in the number of electrons it can have?

Yes. The shells of an atom have different limits for how many electrons they can hold depending on the size of the shell. For example, the limit of the first shell is just two electrons, but the bigger second shell can hold eight electrons.


What is the relationship between the maximum number of electrons in each shell and the number of elements in each period?

The maximum number of electrons in each shell is determined by the formula 2n^2, where n is the shell number. Each period in the periodic table corresponds to the shell number, so the number of elements in each period corresponds to the maximum number of electrons that can occupy that shell.


How many electrons can shell p hold?

P stands for Principal shell and it can hold 6 electrons.


What is the maximum number of electrons in the p sub shell?

the answer is 6


How electrons does a K shell L shell M shell and N shell have?
