Electrons in an atom are distributed depending upon the capacity of the shells...
The shells are named as K,Ł,M,N depending upon the number of orbital ring or shells you have in that atom..
We can also find the number of electrons just by a simple method that is the formula 2n²
,where n is the number of shells...
The K shell can only carry 2 electrons as if we also see through the formula, since K is the first shell hence we can get it as :- 2*1²=2(electrons)
Similarly for L :- 2*2²=2*2*2=8(electrons)
M:- 2*3²=2*3*3=18
N:- 2*4²=2*4*4=32 and so on....
Remember the numbers 18 and 32 are the maximum number of electrons they can hold..
Hence,other than K all the other shells can have 8 electrons to form an octet...
Hope this answer is helpful to you in your daily life....
