The distribution of elements in different orbits is governed by a scheme called Bohr- Bury scheme.
There are following rules :
- The maximum number of electrons present in any shell is given by the formula 2n2 Where n = no. of orbit.
- The maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in the outermost shell is 8.
- Electrons in an atom do not occupy a new shell unless all the inner shells are completely filled.
