Maximum capacity of electrons in f-orbitals is 14, so 4f orbitals may have 1 to 14 electrons.
Ah. I know what your trying to figure out. The answers silver not copper. Anyway 5 d orbitals.
The 3rd period contains 2 of the 3 orbitals for the third sublevel. It has the s and p orbitals in it.
6 electrons in 3 orbitals of p-sublevel: px, py and pz
n=2 has 3 2p orbitals.
All p sublevels contain three orbitals, including the 4p sublevel.
16 orbitals

If the question is an attempt to ask "How many orbitals are there with principal quantum number n = 2", then 4 orbitals which can hold a total of 8 electrons.

the p subshell has 3 orbitals. Each Orbital can hold 2 electrons with opposite spins. therefore the p subshell can hold a maximum of 6 electrons.
n=2 has 3 2p orbitals.
If m sub l is three, then there can be 7 orbitals, since the l value (the one that corresponds to the orbitals) would be 3 (denoting the f orbital).
