They both have two electron shells
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
The period 2 element lies in the second row of the periodic system.
Consists of the elements: lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, and neon
atomic number : 3
electron configuration : [He] 2s¹
atomic number = number of proton=number of electron(in neutral atom)
So Li have 3 protons and 3 electrons
Because it fills the 2s orbital it has 2 shells
atomic number : 8
electron configuration : [He] 2s²2p⁴
So O have 8 protons and 8 electrons
Because it fills the 2s and 2p orbital it has 2 shells
So Lithium (Li) and Oxygen (O) are both have two electron shells
The combustion reaction is as expressed,
CxHy + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
The mass fraction of carbon in CO2 is 3/11. Hence,
mass of C in CO2 = (3.14 g)(3/11) = 0.86 g C.
Given that we have 1 g of the hydrocarbon, the mass of H is equal to 0.14 g.
moles of C = 0.86 g C / 12 g = 0.0713
moles of H = 0.14 g H / 1 g = 0.14
The empirical formula for the hydrocarbon is therefore, CH₂.
We are most likely to find water in the form of gas in the atmosphere.

The atom is still 24Na.
hope this helps,have a great day!!

C
The elements are Lithium and Beryllium— just look at the mass number on the periodic table
