Answer:
6
Explanation:
The maximum number of electrons in the orbitals of sub-levels are given as:
for s-sublevel we have two electrons and one orbital
p-sublevel we have six electrons and three orbitals
d-sublevel we have ten electrons and five orbitals
f- sublevel we have fourteen electrons and seven orbitals
The second energy level is represented by the p-sub-level and it will accommodate 6 electrons.
