I think this will answer your question:
S holds a maximum of 2 electrons
P holds a maximum of 6 electrons
D holds a maximum of 10 electrons
F holds a maximum of 14 electrons If you want to learn more try typing in the aufbau principle on Answers.com
Or try looking up electron configurations.

If s and p sub levels of an atom of an element in period 3 are filled with electrons which orbitals are filled in this atom?
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.
How many unhybridized p orbitals does an atom with sp2 hybridization have access to?
An atom with sp2 hybridization has one unhybridized p orbital. This is because one s orbital and two p orbitals are used to form the sp2 hybrid orbitals, leaving one p orbital unhybridized.
What geometric arrangement of charge clouds is expected for an atom that has four charge clouds?
A tetrahedral arrangement of charge clouds is expected for an atom with four charge clouds. This arrangement is formed by placing the charge clouds at the corners of a tetrahedron, providing the most stable arrangement that maximizes the distance between them.
What does the s orbital fill before the p orbitals?
The s orbital fills before the p orbitals because it has lower energy. This means that electrons will fill up the s orbital before moving to the higher energy p orbitals in the electronic configuration of an atom.
What sublevels are contained in the hydrogen atom's first four energy levels?
The four sublevels encountered in the elements are s, p, d, f.The number of orbitals in each level are s, one; p, three, d ,five; f, 7.
What does s p d f stand for in chemistry?
They represent the shape of the area a particular electron is most likely to be found as it move about the nucleus of an atom: "s" orbital is a sphere, "p" orbital is a dumbbell, "d" and "f" are more complex.
What are the Energy levels of an atom?
Energy Level: Sublevels1: s2: s, p3: s, p, d4: s, p, d, f5: s, p, d, f, g6: s, p, d, f, g, h7: s, p, d, f, g, h, i
If s and p sub levels of an atom of an element in period 3 are filled with electrons which orbitals are filled in this atom?
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.
Which two orbitals could the valence electrons be in?
Valence electrons can be found in the s and p orbitals in an atom. The s orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the p orbitals can hold a maximum of 6 electrons. This arrangement allows for a maximum of 8 valence electrons in an atom.
What are the four orbitals called in an atom?
Answer: s, p, d, and f -orbitals, differing in 'shape'.
What sub shells letters are present in the third energy level of the atom?
's', 'p' and 'd'
Which type(s) of subatomic particles can be located within the nucleus of an atom?
Protons and neutrons are the subatomic particles found within the nucleus of an atom. Electrons are found outside the nucleus in electron clouds.
How many unhybridized p orbitals does an atom with sp2 hybridization have access to?
An atom with sp2 hybridization has one unhybridized p orbital. This is because one s orbital and two p orbitals are used to form the sp2 hybrid orbitals, leaving one p orbital unhybridized.

What does the s orbital fill before the p orbitals?
The s orbital fills before the p orbitals because it has lower energy. This means that electrons will fill up the s orbital before moving to the higher energy p orbitals in the electronic configuration of an atom.
How are electrons compiled on an atoms?
In orbitals and shells. Orbitals are hard to describe because they are shaped by relativistic quantum mechanics and can only be visualized as probability clouds not as physical shapes. Shells are composed of sets of orbitals. s orbital probability clouds are spherical. p orbital probability clouds are egg shaped ellipsoids. d orbital probability clouds are hour glass shaped with a donut around the middle unattached. f orbital probability clouds are hour glass shaped with two distorted donuts around the middle unattached. etc. Shell 1 has a single s orbital. Shell 2 has a single s orbital and 3 p orbitals. Shell 3 has a single s orbital, 3 p orbitals, and 5 d orbitals. Shell 4 has a single s orbital, 3 p orbitals, 5 d orbitals, and 7 f orbitals. etc.
What is in the clouds of negatively charged particles that surrounds an atom?
