All other orbitals at the sub contain at least one electron
There can only be 2 electrons in each single orbital, and they will be on opposite sides of the electron cloud (orbital).
Orbitals don't contain elements. The elements each have specific orbitals based on the number of electrons it has. All of the elements have at least one s orbital. Hydrogen being the simplest element has one electron in the 1s orbital. The s orbital can contain a maximum of 2 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
Neutrons and protons make up the nucleus; therefore, they cannot revolve around the nucleus. Electrons, on the other hand, are on orbitals surrounding the nucleus. The number of orbitals and the number of electrons per orbital depend on the placement of the element on the periodic table, the atomic mass, the atomic number, etc. A maximum of eight electrons can be on one orbital.
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
of course they can. They have to be of opposite spin and two is the maximum number that can occupy one orbital.
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
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.
only if spins are opposite: one up one down.
Any orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons
2. Two electrons of opposite spin. This is true of all s, p, d, f g.... orbitals, eah can only contain two electrons of opposite spin.
2 ELECTRONS in one orbital. (An electron can only be in one orbital at once)
The requirement ("Pauli Exclusion Principle") is that they must be different in at least one of their properties ("quantum numbers").
2. The S sub-shell has one orbital and an orbital can hold a max of 2 electrons.
there are 16 orbitals in a n=4 shell *since there are 2 electrons in each orbital, that makes 32 electrons total here
All other orbitals at the sub contain at least one electron
