There are 7 outer orbital electrons in an atom of chlorine, as it has 7 electrons in its outermost energy level.
Xenon is found in group 18. It has an electronic configuration of 2, 8, 18, 18, 8 and has eight valence electrons (or eight electrons in the outer most orbital).
All of 11 electrons in sodium are in different electron orbitals: 2 electrons are in 1s orbital, 2 in 2s, 6 in 2p and 1 in the 3s orbital. (This last one is the so-called valence electron)
An atom of phosphorus (P) has five outer orbital electrons in its third energy level, as it has 15 electrons in total with electronic configuration 2-8-5.
Each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.

Be (beryllium) has four electrons total: the first orbital, the 1s orbital, has two, which leaves two electrons in the outer shell.
There are 7 outer orbital electrons in an atom of chlorine, as it has 7 electrons in its outermost energy level.
The p orbital can hold a maximum of 6 electrons – 2 electrons in each of the 3 p suborbitals (px, py, pz).
In the electron configuration of tin (Sn), the 3d electrons are not present. Tin has a configuration of [Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p2, which means it has 2 electrons in the 5s orbital, 10 electrons in the 4d orbital, and 2 electrons in the 5p orbital.
Xenon is found in group 18. It has an electronic configuration of 2, 8, 18, 18, 8 and has eight valence electrons (or eight electrons in the outer most orbital).
The S orbital contains a maximum of two electrons
2 are both found in the 1s orbital of an atom
All of 11 electrons in sodium are in different electron orbitals: 2 electrons are in 1s orbital, 2 in 2s, 6 in 2p and 1 in the 3s orbital. (This last one is the so-called valence electron)
A single orbital can hold up to two electrons.
An atom of phosphorus (P) has five outer orbital electrons in its third energy level, as it has 15 electrons in total with electronic configuration 2-8-5.
There are five orbitals in a d orbital: dxy, dyz, dxz, dx^2-y^2, and dz^2. Each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, resulting in a total of 10 electrons that can be accommodated in a d orbital.
