In an element’s molecular structure, what is the maximum number of electrons in the first shell?
2
In an element’s molecular structure, what is the maximum number of electrons in the second shell?
4
In an element’s molecular structure, what is the maximum number of electrons in the third shell?
4
In an element’s molecular structure, what is the maximum number of electrons in the fourth shell?
There is no maximum-an infinite number of electrons can be found. This is were all the remaining electrons in an element are placed.
