How many electrons occupy p orbital in silicon atom?

There are a total of six electrons that occupy the p orbital of a neutral silicon atom. The p sublevel can hold a maximum of six electrons, with each p orbital accommodating two electrons with opposite spins.


How many electrons can occupy a single molecular orbital?

Every orbital is different. 2 can occupy the first orbital then 8 can occupy mostly the rest. When you start getting really low on the periodic table orbitals start holding 16, but not till u get really low


As many as four electrons can occupy the same orbitals?

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).


How many electrons are in a full second orbital?

There will be 6 electrons in the full second orbital, being that- s=2 p=6 d=10 f=14


How many electrons are held in the second energy level?

A total number of 8 electrons. Two in the 2s orbital and six in the 2p orbital


How many electrons does carbon have on its second shell?

Carbon has 4 electrons on its second shell. This is calculated based on the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the second shell, which is 8.


How many electrons can occupy the third orbital?

How many electrons will there be in each atom of lithium?

Each atom of lithium will have 3 electrons. Two electrons will fill the 1s orbital, and the third electron will occupy the 2s orbital, following the electron configuration of 1s^2 2s^1.


How many electrons occupy on orbita?

Each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, following the Pauli exclusion principle which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers.


How many electrons can be placed in the second energy level?

8 electrons. The second energy level (n=2) has 4 orbitals. One s orbital and three p orbitals. Each orbital can hold 2 electrons of opposite spin.


How many total electrons does an atom possess if it has the first two electron orbitals completed?

An atom with the first two electron orbitals completed would have 10 total electrons. The first electron orbital can hold up to 2 electrons (2 in the s subshell), and the second electron orbital can hold up to 8 electrons (2 in the s subshell and 6 in the p subshell).


How many electrons can be in the S orbital?

The S orbital contains a maximum of two electrons
