The electrons fill in the lowest energy orbital that is available. Electrons in the 4s orbital have a lower energy level than electrons in the 3p orbital, so the 4s orbitals are filled with electrons first.
Al, Si, P, S, Cl and Ar have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 electrons respectively in the 3p (valence orbitals). However all elements after Argon have completely filled 3p orbitals though 3p is not the valence orbital.
Since they are p orbitals, 6 electrons are occupied in the 3p orbital. there are 3 types of p orbital, px, py and pz
True
The principal energy level is three, so there are three sublevels: 3s, 3p, and 3d. S,P and D
An electron in a 2s orbital is on average closer to the nucleus.
the 3d orbital
The electrons fill in the lowest energy orbital that is available. Electrons in the 4s orbital have a lower energy level than electrons in the 3p orbital, so the 4s orbitals are filled with electrons first.
Dumbell, all p orbitals are dumbell shaped. S are spherical and d orbitals are double dumbelled.
3p is the highest "occupied" orbital of an "unexcited" neutral Silicon atom.

True
The next highest energy electron orbital after 3p is the 4s orbital, after which comes the 3d and then 4p orbitals.
Five. Two in the 3s orbital and three in the 3p orbitals (one in each p orbital).
Molecular consists of multiple atomic orbitals
