since the spherical orbit can only accomadate a pair of electrons in its energy level

Why can a p sublevel hold 6 electrons while the s sublevel can hold no more than 2 electrons?
because sublevel p has 3 orbital and each orbital can hold up to 2 electrons meanwhile sublevel s only has 1 orbital and each can hold 2 electrons therefore sublevel p can hold more
How many electrons are found in each sublevel?
Multiply the orbitals in that sublevel by 2. The s sublevel has one orbital and can contain 2 electrons. The p sublevel has three orbitals and can contain 6 electrons. The d sublevel has five orbitals and can contain 10 electrons. The f sublevel has seven orbitals and can contain 14 electrons.
How many electrons are in the g sublevel?
There are 9 orbitals in a g sublevel. (there is 1 in an s sublevel, 3 in a p sublevel, 5 in a d sublevel, 7 in an f sublevel, 9 in a g sublevel, 11 in an h sublevel, etc.)
How many electrons are held in s sublevel?
s-sublevels holds only two electrons in maximum.
What is the maxium number of electrons in sublevel f?
It depends on which subshell you're speaking of.. remember the the Lewis Structures? Well the 1st subshell will have 2 electrons 2nd Subshell : 8 e- 3rd : 18 e- 4th : 32 e- Above that I've never had to do any structures with more than 4 subshells and even those are VERY rare and I'm doing Uni chem. Hope this helps a bit. peace

What sublevel in group 2 elements are valence electrons?
s
What element has 2 electrons in the 1s sublevel and 4 electrons in the 2s level?
An element cannot have 4 electrons in the 2 s level. The s subshell can hold only TWO electrons. Carbon has 4 electrons in the 2p level, however, if that's what you meant.
What is the maximum number of electrons that the f sublevel can hold?
f has 14 electrons in 7 sublevel orbitals,d has 10 electrons in 5 sublevel orbitals,p has 6 electrons in 3 sublevel orbitals,s has 2 electrons in 1 sublevel orbital.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can go into sublevel 2s?
The maximum number of electrons in any s sublevel is 2, irrespective of what the principal quantum number, i.e., the number before the s in an electron configuration, may be.
How many orbitals are in the 7s sublevel?
Two electrons (each with opposite spins) in the '7s orbital'
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the 2p sublevel?
The maximum number of electrons in the 2p sublevel is 6. The p sublevel has three orbitals, each of which can take two electrons.
How many electrons can a s sublevel contain?
S contains 2 P contains 6 D contains 10 F contains 14
