Answer:
Maximum number of electrons in any orbit is given by formula 2n^2
Maximum no of electrons in n=2 orbit = 2×2^2=8
If u forget the formula then:
Remember that n= 2 orbit has s and p subshell
Max no of electrons in s subshell = 2
Max no of electrons in p subshell = 6
Maximum no of electrons in n=2 orbit = 8
