The electron configuration of sodium is [Ne]3s1.
This is called the "ground state", all electrons occupy the orbitals of lowest energy available to them.
An orbital can only occupy maximum of 2 electrons. As p orbital consist of 3 orbitals. And has 3 orientations. Px, Py, Pz. So as there are 3 orbitals so p orbital can occupy at the maximum 6 electrons regardless of principle quantum no.. In 4p 4 is principle quantum no. So it represent 4p represent the p orbital of 4th shell. So it also occupy at the maximum of 6 electrons.
Electrons are typically found in energy levels or orbitals around the nucleus of an atom. The specific energy levels or orbitals that electrons occupy depend on the element and its atomic structure. However, it is important to note that electrons do not have a fixed position, but rather exist within a probabilistic distribution.
list all the orbitals that hydrogen electrons can occupy as it fall.
Just as the valence electrons of atoms occupy atomic orbitals (AO), the shared electron pairs of covalently bonded atoms may be thought of as occupying molecular orbitals (MO).
Outer energy level electrons, or valence electron.
There are 6 Chlorine has 7 valence electrons, and since 2 of them can occupy one s orbital, there needs to be 5 p orbitals for everything else. (5+1=6)
Arsenic has three electrons occupying the three 4p orbitals in its valence shell. Hund's first rule tells us that they will each occupy separate orbitals before they start to pair up. So there are three half-filled orbitals in an arsenic atom.
The element scandium has 21 electrons. However, most of these occupy the inner orbitals. The only electrons in the valence shell are those in the 2s orbital. Since there are two such electrons, scandium has 2 valence electrons.
After the 3d sublevel is filled, additional electrons will occupy the 4p orbitals, for a total of 6 electrons in the 4p sublevel.
5 electrons in p orbitals in the outer shell. Cl has an electronic configuration of [Ne] 3s2, 3p5 In level 2 there a further 6 electrons in p orbitals making 11 electrons in total occupying p orbitals

Electrons will occupy orbitals having the lowest energy first, and then in order of increasing energy.
two and both must be of opposite spin to each other
They have different numbers of valence electrons.
