Question

An atom has 6 electrons in its M shell. How many electrons are there in the atoms​

Answer 1

Answer:

16

Explanation:

Unless first she'll is maximum filled with electrons there cannot be another shell (in case of non transition elements)

K Shell = 2

L She'll = 8 (2n^2 formula is issued to knw no of electrons in shell)

M she'll = 6

Total = 16

Answer 2

Answer:

The atom having 6 electron in M shell has a total of 16 electrons.

Explanation:

The atom which has 6 electrons must have the K shell be filled with 2 electrons and the L shell be filled with 8 electrons. So a total of 16 electrons are there in the atom
