How many electrons occupy p orbital in silicon atom?
8
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 total electrons does an atom possess if it has the first two electron orbitals completed?
4 electrons. First orbital is the 1s which has 2 electrons. Second orbital is the 2s which has 2 electrons.
How many electrons can occupy the third orbital?
3s: 2 3p: 6 3d: 10 Orbital chart 1s 2sp 3spd 4spdf 5spdf 6df 7df
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 electrons can be in the S orbital?
The S orbital contains a maximum of two electrons
How many electrons can occupy the 2s subshell and 3d subshell?
Two electrons can occupy the 2s subshell, and 8 electrons can occupy the 3d subshell.
How many p electrons are possible in any orbital?
6 electrons can ocupy the 2p, 3p, 4p, and so on. each p subshell has 3 orbitals, and each orbital can hold up to 2 electrons, so each p subshell can hold up to 6 electrons total.
How many electrons can single orbital hold?
A single orbital can hold up to two electrons.
