Hey Mate!!
The maximum number of electrons present in a particular shell is calculated by the formula 2n2, where “n” represents the shell number.
- For instance, K shell is the first shell and it can hold up to 2(1)2 = 2 electrons.
- Similarly, L shell is the second shell and it can hold up to 2(2)2 = 8 electrons.
- The maximum capacity to hold electrons in the outermost shell is 8.
- The electrons will fill the inner shells before the outer shells. First electrons will fill the K-shell and then L shell and so on. Thus, electronic configuration of elements follows an ascending order.
Hope this helps you!!

Answer:
Rule 1: The maximum number of electrons present in a particular shell is calculated by the formula 2n2, where “n” represents the shell number. For instance, K shell is the first shell and it can hold up to 2(1)2 = 2 electrons. Similarly, L shell is the second shell and it can hold up to 2(2)2 = 8 electrons.
