3, each of which can hold 1 or 2 electrons.
Please note that many chemists would say that there were always 3 p orbitals in the p sublevels, they may, however not all be occupied by electrons.

∙ 13y agoin a "s" sublevel there are a max of 2 electrons located on 1 orbital.
in a "p" sub level there are a max of 6 electrons located on 3 orbitals.
in a "d" sub level there are a max of 10 electrons located on 5 orbitals.
Extra:
within a level (n=2 or n=3 etc) the number of orbitals (adding all the s, p, d etc) is n^2. so in a n=2 level, there are 4 orbitals (1 for 2s, 3 for 2p..1+3=4)

How many orbitals are in a p subshell?
6 electrons in 3 orbitals of p-sublevel: px, py and pz
Which sublevel is filling with electrons for the noble gases?
p-orbitals.
How do you find the number of orbitals in an element?
You would have to determine the electron configuration for atoms of a given element. Each s sublevel contains 1 orbital, each p sublevel contains 3 orbitals, each d sublevel contain 5 orbitals, and each f sublevel contains 7 orbitals. Click on the related link to see a periodic table that shows electron configurations for the elements.
How many 3d atomic orbitals exist?
The 3rd period contains 2 of the 3 orbitals for the third sublevel. It has the s and p orbitals in it.
Does an electron have the same amount of enery in all orbitals?
All of the orbitals in the same energy sublevel (s, p, d, f) have the same amount of energy. For example, each of the 3p orbitals have the same energy and all of the electrons in the 3p orbitals have the same energy.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the 2p sublevel?
The maximum number of electrons in the 2p sublevel is 6. The p sublevel has three orbitals, each of which can take two electrons.
How many orbitals can be found in a 3p sublevel?
9
How many orbitals are in sublevel p?
3
How many orbitals are in p-sublevel?
3
How many orbitals are in the following sublevel 4s sublevel?
All p sublevels contain three orbitals, including the 4p sublevel.
How many orbitals are in a p subshell?
6 electrons in 3 orbitals of p-sublevel: px, py and pz
How many electrons are found in each sublevel?
Multiply the orbitals in that sublevel by 2. The s sublevel has one orbital and can contain 2 electrons. The p sublevel has three orbitals and can contain 6 electrons. The d sublevel has five orbitals and can contain 10 electrons. The f sublevel has seven orbitals and can contain 14 electrons.
What is the maximun number of orbitals in the p sublevel?
3 px py pz each with 2 electrons
Which sublevel is filling with electrons for the noble gases?
p-orbitals.
How many orbitals in the f sublevel?
there are actually 7 orbitals.. the different orbitals are s,p,d,f s has 1, p has 3, d has 5, and f has 7. i hope this helps you..i got this info straight from my chem teacher..

How many electrons are in the g sublevel?
There are 9 orbitals in a g sublevel. (there is 1 in an s sublevel, 3 in a p sublevel, 5 in a d sublevel, 7 in an f sublevel, 9 in a g sublevel, 11 in an h sublevel, etc.)
