if K and L shells of an atom ar full,then what would be the total number of electrons in an atom???

We know that the K shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the L shell can accommodate a maximum of 8 electrons. Thus, if in an atom both the K and L shell are full, then the total number of electrons in the atom are 2 + 8 = 10.
