In a 3p element, which include Al, Si, P, S, Cl, and Ar, there are 2p and 3p orbitals, of which only the 3p exists in the third energy level. There are three types of p orbital, px, py, and pz. They orient themselves in the x, y and z axes, as is suggested. Therefore, there are three p-orbitals in the third energy level.
a triple bond consists of one sigma bond and 2 pi bonds. Each pi bond is an overlap of 2 p orbitals. So that would be 4 p orbitals.
The principal quantum number, n, designates the main energy levels occupied by electrons. The number of orbitals in an energy level is n2 (n squared), so that the first energy level, n = 1, contains 1 orbital; the second energy level, n = 2, contains 4 orbitals; the third energy level, n= 3, has 9 orbitals; and the fourth energy level, n=4, has 16 orbitals, and so on.
The third principal energy level can hold a maximum of 18 electrons. Two are in the s orbital, 6 in the three p orbitals, and 10 in the five d orbitals.
There are one 3s orbital, three 3p orbitals, and five 3d sublevels.
The number of possible different orbital shapes for the third energy level is 3. For n equals 4 the number of possible orbital shape is 4.
5 sub-orbitals with (max.) two electrons in each, so 10 in total. This is also true for 4d and 5d orbitalsSymbols:dz2 , dxz ,dyz ,dxy ,dx2-y2
There is one s orbital and three p orbitals and five d orbitals in the third energy level.
The principal quantum number, n, designates the main energy levels occupied by electrons. The number of orbitals in an energy level is n2 (n squared), so that the first energy level, n = 1, contains 1 orbital; the second energy level, n = 2, contains 4 orbitals; the third energy level, n= 3, has 9 orbitals; and the fourth energy level, n=4, has 16 orbitals, and so on.

They can only have 1 S ORBITAL per energy level (1s, 2s, 3s...). Each S orbital consists of 2 electrons of opposite spin.
The sulfur atom has 16 electrons around its orbitals. The third energy level is the most tightly bound to the nucleus.
The element sulfur is element number 16, and has 6 electrons in the 3rd orbital level : 3s2, 3p4.
The third principal energy level can hold a maximum of 18 electrons. Two are in the s orbital, 6 in the three p orbitals, and 10 in the five d orbitals.

There are three p orbitals in all levels 2 and above. these are the px, py and pz orbitals, the (suffix is the direction - px lies along the x axis). In the 5th level they will be 5px, 5py, 5pz
Briefly:The electrons are in orbitals, each orbital can take two electrons and each electron would have an opposite spin. Orbitals can have no electrons, one electron or be filled with two electrons.Orbitals are arranged in energy levels. However, even in the same energy level different orbitals will have different energy despite being in the same main energy level.The energy level nearest the nucleus has 1 orbital: 1sThe next energy level, the second energy level has four orbitals: 2s and three p orbitals. The 2p orbitals have more energy than the 2s orbital. The third energy level has 3s x1; 3p x 3 and 3d x 5 however, the 3d orbitals have an energy which actually places them in the fourth energy level between 4s and 4p. It gets complicated.
There are one 3s orbital, three 3p orbitals, and five 3d sublevels.
the maxium number of electrons that the third energy level can occupy is 18
