The correct response for an atom with eight electrons in rings representing energy levels is:
two in the first energy level, six in the second energy level.
According to the Aufbau principle, the first energy level can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the second energy level can hold up to 8 electrons. In this case, the configuration of 2 electrons in the first level and 6 in the second adds up to a total of 8 electrons.
