The arrangement and distribution of electrons in different orbits was given by Bohr and Bury. The arrangement of electrons in different shells and sub-shells is known as the electronic configuration of a particular element. ... For instance, K shell is the first shell and it can hold up to 2(1)2 = 2 electrons.

Answer:
- If orbit number = n
- Then number of electrons present in an orbit = 2n²
- So, for n = 1
- Maximum electrons present in shell K =2×1 = 2
- The outermost shell can contain at most 8 electrons.
- The shells in an atom are filled in sequence
- Thus, until the inner shells of an atom are filled completely the outer shells cannot contain any electrons.
