they have opposite spin
Spin
No. Electrons are fermions, meaning they cannot share the same set of four quantum numbers. Usually when we say "orbital" we only mean the first three, so there is room for two electrons in an orbital (corresponding to the two possible ms values).
only if spins are opposite: one up one down.
Two electrons can occupy the same orbital if they have opposite spins. Pauli's exclusion principle states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers, which include spin.
No, according to the Pauli exclusion principle, no two electrons can have the same set of quantum numbers in an atom. This means that two electrons cannot occupy the same space orbital if they have the same spin.
Yes, an orbital can contain a maximum of 2 electrons. This is due to the Pauli Exclusion Principle, which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers. Therefore, if two electrons occupy the same orbital, they must have opposite spins, allowing the orbital to hold only two electrons at most.

In any shell excluding shell1, there is only 1 s orbital and 1 p orbital. Subshells and the Orbitals are same. Orbital g is known as subshell 5. g orbital is present shell 6. But till today no element is discovered with an electron in g orbital.
It depends what type of orbital these two electrons occupy. But there would be one arrow going up and one arrow going down to show two electrons in the same orbital.
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy one orbital is two. This is due to the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers. Therefore, one orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons, each with opposite spins.
Electrons can occupy the same orbital if they have opposite spin. Spin is a quantum property of particles that can be described as either "up" or "down." The Pauli exclusion principle states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers, so electrons in the same orbital must have opposite spin.
An electron pair are two electrons which occupy the same orbital in an atom or molecule. Paired electrons are represented by two dots.
