How many electrons can fit in a 4s orbital?
All p orbitals are the same - px, py, pz - 2 electrons in each, 6 in a p orbital in total.
Why is there no nodal region in px orbital?
What you say is true for a 2px prbital, i.e. where the principal quantum number n=2. Let's consider hydrogen. When l=2, as befits a p-orbital, n=2 is the smallest value for the principal quantum number n for which the radial equation has a solution. That means it is the smallest n such that there is a solution with energy -13.6/n^2. Since it is the lowest energy for which the radial equation (with l=1) has a solution, the radial part of the wave function has no node. In contrast, 3p orbitals do have radial nodes, but 3d orbitals don't, for the same reason.
How many electrons can the p orbital in a given energy level hold?
6total 2 in px 2 in py and 2 in pz
Letter xyz represent what of orbital?
Cartesian coordinates. However ... there are 3 p orbitals for each principal quantum number, but representing them as px, py, and pz is simply a human mathematical convenience; they're all equivalent and it's simply a convenient way of orthogonalizing them. The d and f orbital names and representations are even less "real".
How many total electrons can the p orbitals hold?
Six in p orbital, in each sublevel of p (px, py, pz) there are two electrons at max.
What is the difference between the 2px orbital and the 2py orbital?
The px orbital has a magnetic quantum number value of -1, and the py orbital has a magnetic quantum number value of 0.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy 3p?
Since they are p orbitals, 6 electrons are occupied in the 3p orbital. there are 3 types of p orbital, px, py and pz
How many electrons can fit in each of the p orbital electron clouds?
Maximum of two in each of the p orbital. there are three p orbitals (px, py and pz)
What is the Maximum number of electrons into 4p orbital?
An orbital can only occupy maximum of 2 electrons. As p orbital consist of 3 orbitals. And has 3 orientations. Px, Py, Pz. So as there are 3 orbitals so p orbital can occupy at the maximum 6 electrons regardless of principle quantum no.. In 4p 4 is principle quantum no. So it represent 4p represent the p orbital of 4th shell. So it also occupy at the maximum of 6 electrons.

6total 2 in px 2 in py and 2 in pz
Which type of bond is formed by p-orbitals?
Two types,sigma bonds (bond is along the ais between the atoms, formed by pz-pz overlap.pi bonds ("above and below2 the bond axis, thers a nodal plane through te atoms) formed by overlap px-px, py-py
How many electrons can p orbitals hold?
It hold 6 thre p orbital (Px Py Pz) and each one hold two so total is six electron can p orbital
How many total electrons can the orbitals hold?
Six in p orbital, in each sublevel of p (px, py, pz) there are two electrons at max.
