What is the maximum numberof electrons that can occupy one orbital?
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy one orbital is 2: One with "Up" spin and one with "Down" spin.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy one orbit?
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
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.
Maximum number of electrons that can occupy in 2s?
Each orbital can accommodate two electrons. There is one s orbital per principal quantum number, so for any Ns orbital level there are a maximum of two electrons.
What is the hightest number of electrons allowed in one orbital?
Any orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons
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.
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 are the different sublevels and maximum number of electrons?
s contains one orbital with a maximum of 2 electrons p contains three orbitals with a maximum of 6 electrons d contains five orbitals with a maximum of 10 electrons f contains seven orbital with a maximum of 14 electrons
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)
