Thus the total number of atomic orbitals in the fourth energy level of an atom is 16.
The number of orbitals in electron shells are: One s orbital three p orbitals 5 d orbitals 7 f orbitals every shell has an s orbital, only shells 2 and above have p orbitals, only shells 3 and above have d orbitals only shells 4 and above have f orbitals. Each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. Level by level the orbitals 1s (one) 2s, 2p(three) 3s, 3p, 3d (five) 4s, 4p, 4d 4f(seven) In a shell where they are possible, all three p orbitals have the same energy, all 5 d orbitals have the same energy and all seven f orbitals have the same energy. I do not like the idea of saying there is a maximum-- an orbital is a solution to the energy levels in a hydrogen atom. You simply cannot have less than 3 p orbitals for instance.
In chemistry, there are no sp4 or sp5 hybrid orbitals because the maximum number of hybrid orbitals that can be formed by combining s and p orbitals is four (sp3 hybridization). This is due to the limitations of the atomic orbitals and the way they combine to form hybrid orbitals.
The d orbital can hold a maximum of 10 electrons when filled. The s can hold 2 and the p can hold 6.
Multiply the orbitals in that sublevel by 2. The s sublevel has one orbital and can contain 2 electrons. The p sublevel has three orbitals and can contain 6 electrons. The d sublevel has five orbitals and can contain 10 electrons. The f sublevel has seven orbitals and can contain 14 electrons.
Thus the total number of atomic orbitals in the fourth energy level of an atom is 16.
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy the s, p, d, and f orbitals are as follows: the s orbital can hold 2 electrons, the p orbitals can hold up to 6 electrons, the d orbitals can accommodate 10 electrons, and the f orbitals can contain 14 electrons. Therefore, the total maximum number of electrons in these orbitals combined is 32 (2 + 6 + 10 + 14 = 32).
The number of orbitals in electron shells are: One s orbital three p orbitals 5 d orbitals 7 f orbitals every shell has an s orbital, only shells 2 and above have p orbitals, only shells 3 and above have d orbitals only shells 4 and above have f orbitals.

I do not like the idea of saying there is a maximum-- an orbital is a solution to the energy levels in a hydrogen atom. You simply cannot have less than 3 p orbitals for instance.
The maximum number of electrons in the 2p sublevel is 6. The p sublevel has three orbitals, each of which can take two electrons.
In chemistry, there are no sp4 or sp5 hybrid orbitals because the maximum number of hybrid orbitals that can be formed by combining s and p orbitals is four (sp3 hybridization). This is due to the limitations of the atomic orbitals and the way they combine to form hybrid orbitals.
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.
s contains one orbital with a maximum of 2 electrons p contains three orbitals with a maximum of 6 electrons d contains five orbitals with a maximum of 10 electrons f contains seven orbital with a maximum of 14 electrons
The 2d and 2f orbitals are not possible because of the constraints imposed by quantum mechanics and the principal quantum number (n). The principal quantum number n specifies the energy level and size of the orbital, and for any given n, the maximum angular momentum quantum number (l) can only take values from 0 to n-1. Therefore, for n=2, l can only be 0 (s orbital) or 1 (p orbital), making the 2d and 2f orbitals non-existent.
Orbitals don't contain elements. The elements each have specific orbitals based on the number of electrons it has. All of the elements have at least one s orbital. Hydrogen being the simplest element has one electron in the 1s orbital. The s orbital can contain a maximum of 2 electrons.
In any orbital the maximum number of electrons is 2 of opposite spin. The following is a list of the different types of orbitals and the maximum nuber of electrons each type can contain. s-orbitals: one orbital, containing 2 electrons p-orbitals: three (px, py, pz) containing 6 in total d-orbitals: five, containing 10 f-orbitals: seven containing 14
The d orbital can hold a maximum of 10 electrons when filled. The s can hold 2 and the p can hold 6.
Each orbital contains maximum or 2 electrons. you could be either asking for this OR s orbital contains maximum of 2 electrons (has 1 orbitals) p orbital contains maximum of 6 electrons (has 3 orbitals) d orbital contains maximum of 10 electrons (has 5 orbitals)
