Question

State true or false. The maximum capacity of K shell is 18 electrons. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

false

Explanation:

Therefore, the K shell, which contains only an s subshell, can hold up to 2 electrons; the L shell, which contains an s and a p, can hold up to 2 + 6 = 8 electrons, and so forth; in general, the nth shell can hold up to 2n2 electrons.

Answer 2

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The maximum no.of electrons accommodated in K shell is 2. The 2nd orbit will fill up to 8 electrons . The 3rd orbit can fill up to 18 electrons and it will accommodate left electrons of the element.
