Explanation:
The maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in an orbit is given by the formula 2n2where n is the number of orbit.
Electrons in each shell
Let us calculate the number of electrons in each shell
The maximum number of electrons present in the first orbit or K shell is
= 2 × 12
= 2
The maximum number of electrons present in the L shell is
= 2 × (2)2
= 2 × 4
= 8
The maximum number of electrons present in the M shell is
= 2 × (3)2
= 2 × 9
= 18
The maximum number of electrons present in the N shell is
= 2 × (4)2
= 2 × 16
= 32
