All p sublevels contain three orbitals, including the 4p sublevel.
The elements in group 15 Nitrogen, N; Phosphorus, P; Arsenic, As; Antimony, Sb and Bismuth, Bi all have a ground state with 3 unpaired electrons in p orbitals.
Arsenic has three electrons occupying the three 4p orbitals in its valence shell. Hund's first rule tells us that they will each occupy separate orbitals before they start to pair up. So there are three half-filled orbitals in an arsenic atom.
One electron in each of the three p orbitals (Hund's rule)
All three 2p orbitals (2px, 2py, 2pz) are occupied by two electrons each.(6 electrons in total: (2px2, 2py2, 2pz2) = 2p6)
There are 9 occupied orbitals in a phosphorus atom's ground state: one 1s orbital, one 2s orbital, three 2p orbitals, one 3s orbital, and three 3p orbitals.
Ne has three p-orbitals.
All p sublevels contain three orbitals, including the 4p sublevel.
The elements in group 15 Nitrogen, N; Phosphorus, P; Arsenic, As; Antimony, Sb and Bismuth, Bi all have a ground state with 3 unpaired electrons in p orbitals.
They can only have 1 S ORBITAL per energy level (1s, 2s, 3s...). Each S orbital consists of 2 electrons of opposite spin.
Always three!
There is one s orbital and three p orbitals and five d orbitals in the third energy level.
Arsenic has three electrons occupying the three 4p orbitals in its valence shell. Hund's first rule tells us that they will each occupy separate orbitals before they start to pair up. So there are three half-filled orbitals in an arsenic atom.

Arsenic is paramagnetic because the electron configuration is {Ar}4s^2,3d^10,4p^3. Due to the unpaired electron at the end (4p^*3*) the atom in ground state is paramagnetic. **OR Arsenic would be paramagnetic since the 4 p orbitals each contain one electron with parallel spin. These three unpaired electrons give arsenic its paramagnetic property.
Three completely filled orbitals.
All three 2p orbitals (2px, 2py, 2pz) are occupied by two electrons each.(6 electrons in total: (2px2, 2py2, 2pz2) = 2p6)
