Assuming K stands for potassium, an element with 19 electrons, the electron configuration is as follows:
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s13p64s1
The electron configuration shows the orbitals is order of energy level. The 4s orbital being at the highest energy level and the 1s orbital being at the lowest energy level. As 2px, 2py and 2pz exist, there are three 2p orbitals that occur at the p level, allowing the element to carry 6 electrons, 2 in each orbital.
There is a specific order in listing the orbitals

How many energy levels are found in an atom of carbon?
There are 2 energy levels in a Carbon atom. The first energy level consists of '1s' orbital, and the second energy level consists of the '2s' orbital and the '2p' orbital.
What is subshell or sub energy level?
The level of energy possessed by all electrons in one type of orbital
Why does the s orbital fill before the p orbital?
It has a lower energy level. All else being equal, electrons tend to go into the lowest energy orbital with space available.
What does the first principle energy level of the hydrogen atom contain?
s orbital.
What is the lowest energy level that has f orbital?

What is the first energy level of an electron?
The K shell's 1s orbital is te first energy level of an electron.
When do d orbital start getting filled?
after the s orbital of the next highest energy level
If Assuming all orbitals are the same in energy level which type of orbital has the lowest energy?
The s orbital has the lowest energy level.

How many energy levels are found in an atom of carbon?

What is the relationship between the size of an s orbital and the principal energy level in which it is found?
nothing at all, because the s orbital is a spherosophical orbital, while the principal energy level isn't.
What is subshell or sub energy level?
The level of energy possessed by all electrons in one type of orbital
What energy level can the s orbital be found in?
Each main energy level (1 to 7) has at least an s-orbital, p-orbitals are possible from the second level onwards (2 to 7) d-orbitals from 4th level f-orbitals from 6th level
What is the lowest level having f orbital?
The lowest energy level that has F orbitals is the fourth energy level. The Atomic orbital of any atom only contains 2 electrons.
What is the lowest energy level that can have a d orbital?
3d
Which the lowest energy level that can have a p orbital?
2p
Why does the s orbital fill before the p orbital?
It has a lower energy level. All else being equal, electrons tend to go into the lowest energy orbital with space available.
