2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
What else can I help you with?
Can two electrons occupy a single orbital?
of course they can. They have to be of opposite spin and two is the maximum number that can occupy one orbital.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy one orbit?
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
What is the number of electrons that can occupy a one s orbital?
A one s orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons. These electrons must have opposite spins, as dictated by the Pauli exclusion principle. The s orbital is spherical in shape and is the lowest energy orbital in an atom.
Maximum number of electrons in the 5s orbital?
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy the 5s orbital is 2. This is based on the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins.
What is the hightest number of electrons allowed in one orbital?
Any orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons
Maximum number of electrons in 2s orbital?
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy the 2s orbital is 2. This is because the s orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, following the Pauli exclusion principle which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers.
How many electrons are needed to fill one orbital?
Each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
How many electrons maximum can be in one orbital?
There can only be 2 electrons in each single orbital, and they will be on opposite sides of the electron cloud (orbital).
When can electrons occupy the same orbital?
only if spins are opposite: one up one down.
What is the orbital notation for an orbital containing two electrons?
It depends what type of orbital these two electrons occupy. But there would be one arrow going up and one arrow going down to show two electrons in the same orbital.
What are the maximum number of orbitals for an electron?
2 ELECTRONS in one orbital. (An electron can only be in one orbital at once)
What is the maximum number of electrons in an orbital is?
In any orbital the maximum number of electrons is 2 of opposite spin. The following is a list of the different types of orbitals and the maximum nuber of electrons each type can contain. s-orbitals: one orbital, containing 2 electrons p-orbitals: three (px, py, pz) containing 6 in total d-orbitals: five, containing 10 f-orbitals: seven containing 14
