There are five d orbitals, known as dz2, dxy, dxz, dyz , and dx2-y2. The special properties of transition metals are because of the d-orbitals.

The type of hybrid orbitals found in graphite and diamond are called 'sp3 hybrid' orbitals. These orbitals are composed of 1 s and 3 p orbitals.
7 Orbitals
When two atomic orbitals interact, they produce two molecular orbitals.
There are four types of orbitals in the sixth shell: s, p, d, and f orbitals. The s orbital is spherical, the p orbitals are dumbbell-shaped, the d orbitals are cloverleaf-shaped, and the f orbitals have more complex shapes. Each type of orbital can hold a specific number of electrons.
Ethylene (C₂H₄) has a total of 6 molecular orbitals formed from the combination of 2 carbon atomic orbitals and 4 hydrogen atomic orbitals. These consist of 2 bonding molecular orbitals (σ and π) and their corresponding antibonding orbitals (σ* and π*), resulting in a total of 4 occupied molecular orbitals. The σ molecular orbitals include one from the C-C bond and two from the C-H bonds, while the π molecular orbital arises from the overlap of the p orbitals on the carbon atoms.
16 orbitals
A set of p type orbitals can hold a maximum of 6 electrons, with each p orbital able to hold a maximum of 2 electrons. This is because there are three p orbitals (px, py, pz) available for electrons to occupy in a given energy level.
Ne has three p-orbitals.
There are 4 orbitals in H2O , one s and 3 p
Beryllium has four orbitals in its electron configuration.
