The Earth formed billions of years after the Universe formed
Explanation:
The "universe" is said to have been formed <em>billions of year ago</em> through an explosion. This was called the <em>"Big Bang Theory." </em>This lead to the<u> expansion of the universe</u> owing to its high temperature and density. After which, the universe cooled down. Galaxies and stars were then formed. Some of the stars died due to explosion, which then led to the <u>creation of planets</u>. Such formation of the planets happened around <u>4.5 billion years ago.</u> This is <em>9.3 billions of years later</em> than the universe was formed<em> (13.8 billions of years ago)</em>. So, this explains the answer.
The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 (2 + 6) electrons, the third shell can hold up to 18 (2 + 6 + 10) and so on.
