3p
The electrons fill in the lowest energy orbital that is available. Electrons in the 4s orbital have a lower energy level than electrons in the 3p orbital, so the 4s orbitals are filled with electrons first.
Since they are p orbitals, 6 electrons are occupied in the 3p orbital. there are 3 types of p orbital, px, py and pz
All of the orbitals in the same energy sublevel (s, p, d, f) have the same amount of energy. For example, each of the 3p orbitals have the same energy and all of the electrons in the 3p orbitals have the same energy.
Al, Si, P, S, Cl and Ar have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 electrons respectively in the 3p (valence orbitals). However all elements after Argon have completely filled 3p orbitals though 3p is not the valence orbital.
9
7 electrons in 3s and 3p (outermost) orbitals
There are no unpaired electrons in calcium, all 20 electrons are in pairs, i.e. each pair is configured in one orbital: 2x in 1s orbital 2x in 2s orbital 2x in each of the three 2p orbitals 2x in 3s orbital 2x in each of the three 3p orbitals and 2x in 4s orbital (these two are the valence electrons)
Calcium. You can check other orbitals for other elements using ptable.com and clicking on the tab at the top labeled "orbitals". It gives you electron configurations for all elements.
In silver there are 2 electrons in 3s orbital, 6 electrons in 3p orbitals and 10 electrons in 3d orbitals. So there is a total of 18 electrons
3p
There are 2, 6 and 10 electrons in the 3s (1 suborbital), 3p (with 3 suborbitals: 3px, 3py, 3pz) and 5 sub orbitals in the 3d orbital: this makes a total of 18 electrons in 9 suborbitals
Sulfur has two electrons in the 1s orbital, two electrons in the 2s orbital, and 6electrons in the 2 p orbitals. The electrons are part of the first and second energy levels, the electron core. The next energy level, the last one, is the outermost energy which comprises the valence shell.
The electrons fill in the lowest energy orbital that is available. Electrons in the 4s orbital have a lower energy level than electrons in the 3p orbital, so the 4s orbitals are filled with electrons first.
There are one 3s orbital, three 3p orbitals, and five 3d sublevels.
Since they are p orbitals, 6 electrons are occupied in the 3p orbital. there are 3 types of p orbital, px, py and pz
All of the orbitals in the same energy sublevel (s, p, d, f) have the same amount of energy. For example, each of the 3p orbitals have the same energy and all of the electrons in the 3p orbitals have the same energy.
