There are seven different possible magnetic quantum numbers or seven orbitals. In that cause the maximum number of electrons an f orbital will hold would be fourteen.
f orbital corresponds to n=4. l = n-1 = 3. The magnetic quantum numbers run from -l to l, or -3, -2,... 3. Thus there are seven possible magnetic quantum numbers, or seven orbitals. Since each orbital has 2 electrons max, an f orbital can hold 14 electrons.
14 electrons
Any orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons

The maximum number of electrons that a single orbital can hold is 2. This is due to the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons with opposite spins.
2. The five d orbitals can hold ten in total.
Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons.
The first orbital of hydrogen, which is the 1s orbital, can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
A single orbital can hold up to two electrons.
The 4s orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
Yes it does. Helium has 2 electrons in the s orbital. A s orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons.
The f orbital can hold a maximum of 14 electrons.
