There is an equation for finding out the number of electrons in each shell:

Ne=2n2 and as known 1st shell is called k-shell, 2nd L-shell, 3rd M-shell, and so on, now put the value of each shell in the equation we get Ne(k)=1(1)2 this results in 2 so k-shell has 2 electrons, likewise put the value of each shell in the equation you will get the exact number of electrons in each shell..

How many electron shells does the beryllium atom have?

Two energy shells. Made up as 1s2, 2s2 Shells 1 & 2 each have only 's' orbital and each orbital has only two electrons in it. The outer shell '2' is more energetic. The electrons are paired and spin in opposite directions to each other.


What are the electron levels?

Electrons don't have levels. They have shells and orbitals. Each shell contains certain orbitals. For example, the first shell contains only the s orbital. The second contains the s and p orbital. The fourth shell has the s, p, and d orbitals.

How many shells are there in Nitrogen?

there are two shells of electrons in the nitrogen atom that actually have electrons in them, nitrogen has two electrons in the first shell, the S orbital, and five in the outer shell, the P orbital. this causes nitrogen to have a valence shell with five electrons.


How many electrons fill the first 3 shells before electrons move to the next shell?

It would have 2 electron shells because the first shell can only hold up to two electrons and the second shell will be responsible for the rest of them.


How are shells created?

shells are created with tortoise 's shell which it hides it self.


How many electronic shells does nitrogen have?

2, 1 s level and 1 p level The nitrogen atom has three electron shells (energy levels), specifically: 1s2, 2s2, and 2p3, accommodating a total of 7 electrons


What do alkali metals have in common with electron shells?

Alkali metals have one electron in their outermost electron shell, making them highly reactive. The presence of this single electron makes them willing to donate it to achieve a stable electron configuration, which is typical of elements in group 1 of the periodic table.
