The element with 6 electrons in the outer shell and 8 electrons total is oxygen (O). Oxygen has 2 electrons in the first shell and 6 in the second shell, making a total of 8 electrons.
When n=2, you have an s orbital with 2 electrons, and you have 3 p orbitals each with 2 electrons (total of 6). So, total number of electrons for n=2 is 8 electrons.
Oxygen has 2 electron rings. The first electron ring can hold up to 2 electrons, and the second electron ring can hold up to 6 electrons. Oxygen typically has 8 electrons, with 6 in the outer ring.
The maximum number of electrons in the second principle energy level is 8. This level can hold up to 2 electrons in the s orbital and 6 electrons in the p orbital.
8. Hydrogen has 1 valence electron, Oxygen has 6. Since H2O has two hydrogen atoms, Water has 6 + 1(2) = 8 valence electrons.
Sulfur has 6 electrons in the outermost energy level as its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 6.
No, its two electrons in the first, 8 electrons in the 2nd and 3rd shell if its stable
Oxygen has 8 electrons (2 in the inner shell, 6 in the outer).
The answer is Sulphur
sulfur atom
Silicon.
Sulfur
actually there are 6 electrons in carbon and oxygen has 8 electrons and it gains 2 electrons to make it a negative ion so the total number of ions are 32
Not Sure... Think the first level has 2 and the rest has 8. 2s^2 2p^6 8 total it is.

No. Electrons are part of the atom. For example, when two atoms come together and one has 6 valence electrons and the other has 2 valence electrons, the atom with the 2 valence electrons might get bonded to the other atom with 6 valence electrons because the atom with 6 valence electrons wants to have 8 valence electrons to fill its outer shell. You might think electrons are bonds, they are not. They are what cause atoms to bond but are not bonds.
