p-block elements have partially filled p-subshell. It is not completely filled.
The period number on the periodic table tells you which energy level (shell) of an atom is being filled. The subshell within that energy level is determined by the block in which the element is located on the periodic table. For example, elements in the s-block fill the s subshell, elements in the p-block fill the p subshell, and so on.
The elements with their outermost s and p sublevels filled are known as representative elements or main group elements. They are found in groups 1, 2, and 13-18 on the periodic table.
In a Bohr diagram, the first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, the third shell can hold up to 18 electrons, and the fourth shell can hold up to 32 electrons.
The atom with a partially filled second electron shell in the ground state is lithium (Li), with 3 electrons occupying the first and second electron shells.
Each of the p orbitals can hold 2 electrons due to the Pauli exclusion principle. Because there are 3 p orbitals in a given subshell, the overall p subshell can hold 6 electrons.
P block elements are not called transition elements because they do not have partially filled d subshells in their ground state electronic configuration. Transition elements are defined as those elements that have partially filled d subshells, which allows them to exhibit characteristics such as variable oxidation states and the formation of colored compounds. P block elements, on the other hand, have their valence electrons in the p subshell.
d subshell = 2 p subshell = 6
It is group 16, also known as the chalcogens
it is the name of the electron subshell that it ends in.
Carbon is group 14 element and comes under p-block elements. It is because its last electrons fall into the p-subshell. Its electronic configuration is 1s22s22p2 . Transition elements are the elements of d-block.They are named so because their position in the Periodic Table lies between the s-block and p-block elements. They have their last electrons filled in the d-orbital.
He does not have a p sub-shell in the valent shell. Because He has the noble gas configuration it is included in the p block.
A p subshell can contain a maximum of 6 electrons.
The 5p subshell is a p-subshell, and as such is filled by 6 electrons - three pairs spinning in opposite directions.The number of electrons in each subshell is as follows:Subshell s p d f theoretical next subshellsNo. of e- 2 6 10 14 18, 22, 26, etc.

It would be phosphorus (I) iodide. However, this is not a stable compound; under normal conditions phosphorus and iodine combine to produce phosphorus (III) iodide (which is also not stable ... it's explosive ... but is considerably more stable than phosphorus (I) iodide is). The electron configuration of the phosphorus in PI3 is [Ne]s2, while that of PI is [Ne]s2p2. The filled s subshell is at least metastable, while a filled s subshell plus a partially filled p subshell is normally not and requires considerable effort to maintain.
