The maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in any shell according to Bohr and bury is 2n2, where n is the shell number

K shell will be =2 × 12=2

L shell will be =2 × 22 = 8

M shell will be = 2 × 32 =18

N shell will be = 2 × 42= 32

The maximum number of electrons that can be filled in the shell K, L, M, N respectively are 2, 8, 18, 32.
