The maximum number of electrons that an energy level can hold is determined from the formula 2n^2 equals the total number, where n is the energy level. The first energy level holds 2*1^2=2 electrons while the second holds 2*2^2= 8 electrons.

How many electrons are needed to completely fill the second level energy? The third? The fourth?
