parallel spins
Arsenic has three electrons occupying the three 4p orbitals in its valence shell. Hund's first rule tells us that they will each occupy separate orbitals before they start to pair up. So there are three half-filled orbitals in an arsenic atom.
Two degenerate orbitals are needed to accommodate the five electrons with three unpaired. The first orbital can hold two electrons with opposite spins, while the second orbital can hold up to three electrons with one paired and two unpaired.
Three degenerate orbitals are needed to contain six electrons with two of them unpaired. Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins, totaling six electrons in three orbitals with two unpaired.
Nitrogen has one electron in the 2s orbital and three electrons in the 2p orbitals.
The three electrons will fill each of the three 2p atomic orbitals with one electron each. Hund's rule states that electrons prefer to occupy empty orbitals before pairing up, so in this case each orbital will have one electron before any orbital receives a second electron.

no, it has three p electrons
3 The electron configuration for nitrogen is 1s22s22p3.

3. Orbitals are filled one electron at a time, putt ting electrons into the lowest energy orbitals first. When there are degenerate orbitals ( having the same energy e.g. p and d orbitals) they tale one un paired electron each first and then and then any extra electrons are added into a half filled orbital to make a spin pair. P has a configuration of [Ne] 3s2 3p3 and there are only three p orbitals ( at any energy level)
Nitrogen has one electron in the 2s orbital and three electrons in the 2p orbitals.
A set of p orbitals consists of three orbitals. Each p orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins.
The three electrons will fill each of the three 2p atomic orbitals with one electron each. Hund's rule states that electrons prefer to occupy empty orbitals before pairing up, so in this case each orbital will have one electron before any orbital receives a second electron.
the first shell (the K shell) can only contain a maximum of two electrons, as it consists of just an s orbitalthe second shell (the L shell) can contain a maximum of eight electrons, as it consists of an s orbital and three p orbitalsthe third shell (the M shell) can contain a maximum of eighteen electrons, as it consists of an s orbital, three p orbitals, and five d orbitalsthe fourth shell (the N shell) can contain a maximum of thirty two electrons, as it consists of an s orbital, three p orbitals, five d orbitals, and seven f orbitalsthe fifth shell (the O shell) can contain a maximum of fifty electrons, as it consists of an s orbital, three p orbitals, five d orbitals, seven f orbitals, and nine g orbitalsetc.
6 electrons in 3 orbitals of p-sublevel: px, py and pz
5 electrons in p orbitals in the outer shell. Cl has an electronic configuration of [Ne] 3s2, 3p5 In level 2 there a further 6 electrons in p orbitals making 11 electrons in total occupying p orbitals
