Its Principal quantum no is 2
The principal energy level is three, so there are three sublevels: 3s, 3p, and 3d. S,P and D
1s orbital 3P, 5d, and 7f in discovered elements
the first shell (the K shell) can only contain a maximum of two electrons, as it consists of just an s orbitalthe second shell (the L shell) can contain a maximum of eight electrons, as it consists of an s orbital and three p orbitalsthe third shell (the M shell) can contain a maximum of eighteen electrons, as it consists of an s orbital, three p orbitals, and five d orbitalsthe fourth shell (the N shell) can contain a maximum of thirty two electrons, as it consists of an s orbital, three p orbitals, five d orbitals, and seven f orbitalsthe fifth shell (the O shell) can contain a maximum of fifty electrons, as it consists of an s orbital, three p orbitals, five d orbitals, seven f orbitals, and nine g orbitalsetc.
S sub-shell has only one orbital. So, the 2nd energy level has only one s orbital.
The "formula" is n2 - so for principal quantum number 4 there are 16 orbitals, correspnding to one X s orital, three X p orbitals, five X d orbitals, seven X f orbitals.
Molecular consists of multiple atomic orbitals
An s orbital

S sub-shell has only one orbital. So, the 2nd energy level has only one s orbital.
There are 9 occupied orbitals in a phosphorus atom's ground state: one 1s orbital, one 2s orbital, three 2p orbitals, one 3s orbital, and three 3p orbitals.
16 orbitals in the 4th energy level. One s orbital, three p orbitals, five d orbitals, seven f orbitals Elements where the 4th principal energy level are filled are:- period 4 4s and 4p (starting with potassium) period 5 4d starting with Yttrium Lanthanides 4f starting with cerium
The "formula" is n2 - so for principal quantum number 4 there are 16 orbitals, correspnding to one X s orital, three X p orbitals, five X d orbitals, seven X f orbitals.
s orbitals are spherical, so there cannot be any angle 'between' an s orbital and a p orbital. However, each lobe of a p orbital is perpendicular (90 degrees in all directions) to the surface of an s orbital.
five atomic orbitals must be mixed into one ; one s orbital; three p orbital; one d orbital, forming sp3d orbital
