It depends on which subshell you're speaking of.. remember the the Lewis Structures?
Well the 1st subshell will have 2 electrons
2nd Subshell : 8 e-
3rd : 18 e-
4th : 32 e-
Above that I've never had to do any structures with more than 4 subshells and even those are VERY rare and I'm doing Uni chem.
Hope this helps a bit.
peace

∙ 9y agoTo answer your question, there are a maximum of ten electrons in the third sub level. Assuming that you are referring to the second quantum number in the series n, l m and s. Where l is the azimuthal quantum number which has values 0, 1, ... (n-1). This is the one sometimes called the subshell. the values of l; 0, 1, 2, 3 are labelled s, p, d, f . The third is l=2 (d orbital). The d subshell (l=2) contains 5 orbitals with values of m, -2, -1, 0 +1, +2 each od which can hold two electrons with different s values.
Each sublevel can contain up to a specific amount of electrons. s can hold 2 electrons. p can hold 6 electrons. d can hold 10 electrons. f can hold 14 electrons. 2, 6, 10, 14 forms the pattern 4n-2 where n is the number of your sublevel.

How many electrons are found in each sublevel?
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.
How many electrons are in the g sublevel?
There are 9 orbitals in a g sublevel. (there is 1 in an s sublevel, 3 in a p sublevel, 5 in a d sublevel, 7 in an f sublevel, 9 in a g sublevel, 11 in an h sublevel, etc.)
What is the maximum number of electrons that the f sublevel can hold?
f has 14 electrons in 7 sublevel orbitals,d has 10 electrons in 5 sublevel orbitals,p has 6 electrons in 3 sublevel orbitals,s has 2 electrons in 1 sublevel orbital.
How many orbitals in the f sublevel?
there are actually 7 orbitals.. the different orbitals are s,p,d,f s has 1, p has 3, d has 5, and f has 7. i hope this helps you..i got this info straight from my chem teacher..
What is the highest sublevel electrons in the element Promethium an f block element occupy?
The highest sublevel that Promethium can have is 4f. It is possible for 14 electrons to be placed around Promethium, since the elements in this sublevel each have 7 orbitals.
Which element has the same number of neutrons as there are electrons in an f sublevel?
silicon

There are 9 orbitals in a g sublevel. (there is 1 in an s sublevel, 3 in a p sublevel, 5 in a d sublevel, 7 in an f sublevel, 9 in a g sublevel, 11 in an h sublevel, etc.)
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy an f energy sublevel?
The f-suborbitals begin to be filled with the lanthanoids (atomic number 57-71). Each f-suborbital can hold a maximum of 14 electrons.
What is the maxium number of electrons an f orbital will hold?
There are seven different possible magnetic quantum numbers or seven orbitals. In that cause the maximum number of electrons an f orbital will hold would be fourteen.
What is the maximum number of electrons that the f sublevel can hold?
f has 14 electrons in 7 sublevel orbitals,d has 10 electrons in 5 sublevel orbitals,p has 6 electrons in 3 sublevel orbitals,s has 2 electrons in 1 sublevel orbital.
How many orbitals in the f sublevel?
there are actually 7 orbitals.. the different orbitals are s,p,d,f s has 1, p has 3, d has 5, and f has 7. i hope this helps you..i got this info straight from my chem teacher..
What is the highest sublevel electrons occupy in uranium 238?
It is the f sublevel. Uranium has the configuration [Rn] 5f3 6d1 7s2.
What is the highest sublevel electrons in the element Promethium an f block element occupy?
The highest sublevel that Promethium can have is 4f. It is possible for 14 electrons to be placed around Promethium, since the elements in this sublevel each have 7 orbitals.
The highest sublevel electrons occupy in a uraniun 238 atom?
The F-Sub level
What is the maximum number of electrons in the 3p sublevel?
An energy sublevel refers to an electron orbital, which are designated as s, p, d or f. The maximum number of electrons in a p-type energy sublevel is 6.
What is the number of electrons for a Zr?
im pretty sure it is 2. i was hoping to find the answer to this online, but it turns out I'll be answering it This is the electron configuration for Zr: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d2 and there are 2 electrons in the outermost energy level of 5. BTW, if you do not know about electron configs, they are based on the periodic table an are in the format of nle where n is the energy level (1,2,3,4...); l is the sublevel (s,p,d,f in that order) and e is the number of electrons. S sublevel can fit 2, P 8, D 18, and F 32. ^^^ Number of electrons per sublevel is calculated using the formula of twice the sublevel squared. Good luck!
