Cadmium is a d block metal element. Atomic number of it is 48. It has 5 s orbitals filled with electrons.
In a xenon atom, all five of its p orbitals are filled with electrons. Each p orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, for a total of 10 electrons in the p orbitals of xenon.
There are two completely filled orbitals in this atom: the 1s orbital with 2 electrons and the 2p orbitals with 6 electrons. The 2s orbital and 3s orbital are not completely filled.
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.
There are two orbitals that are completely filled in this atom: the 1s orbital with 2 electrons (1s2) and the 2s orbital with 2 electrons (2s2). The 2p orbital is not completely filled, as it should have a total of 6 electrons (2p6).
The neutral atom of cadmium has 48 electrons.

In an atom of chromium, there are a total of 24 electrons, leading to a fully filled 3s orbital (2 electrons) and a fully filled 3p orbital (6 electrons). The 3d orbital would have 5 completely filled orbitals since it can hold a maximum of 10 electrons.
If the s and p sublevels are filled in an atom of an element in period 3, then the orbitals filled in this atom would be 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, and 3p. Each s sublevel can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while each p sublevel can hold a maximum of 6 electrons.
Selenium has four half-filled orbitals - the 4s, 4p_x, 4p_y, and 4p_z orbitals. This is because selenium has four electrons in its 4th energy level.
Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons that are found in the outer most shell of an atom, and are consequently the electrons that move from atom to atom in the formation of compounds. The reason for this is a result of the electron configuration. A nitrogen atom has 3 orbitals; the 1s orbital, the 2s orbital, and the 2p orbital. In this case, the 2s and 2p orbitals are the valence orbitals, as they have the electrons with the most energy. With 7 protons, a neutral nitrogen atom has 7 electrons. The s orbitals can only hold 2 electrons, and the p orbitals can hold up to 6 electrons. The 1s orbital is filled first, leaving five electrons, then the 2s orbital is filled, leaving 3 electrons, and then these remaining electrons fill the 2p orbital halfway. There are a total of 5 electrons in the 2s and 2p orbitals, and since these orbitals have the most energy, there are 5 valence electrons.
For one, the atom's outer circle is completely filled with the maximum number of electrons - it's valence orbitals are filled.
An atom of sulfur has 16 electrons. Since the electron configuration of sulfur is 2-8-6, there are two filled energy levels (1s and 2s/2p) with a total of 10 filled orbitals (2 in 1s, 8 in 2s/2p).
Cadmium is the only neutral atom (not electrically charged) to have 48 electrons.
