    The innermost shell of an atom is the shell corresponding to the principal quantum number of 1. Because the principal quantum number is 1, the angular quantum number and the magnetic quantum number of that shell must be 0. Therefore, only 2 electrons can possibly be in the innermost shell, one with spin up and the other with spin down.
