Orchestras are arranged according to the wishes and occasionally whims of the conductor and/or music director. However, some things about the orchestra's seating arrangement are strikingly common to all layouts.
The woodwinds, as a group, generally are placed in straight or slightly curved rows at the front of the non-string sections, centered. Most of the time, the flutes are to the left of the conductor, the oboes to the right. Generally, the clarinets are behind the flutes and the bassoons are behind the oboes, although some orchestras place the bassoons further to the right of the oboes.
The french horns (which are considered part of the woodwinds family despite being clearly brass family!) are generally placed to the conductor's right of the clarinets, with or without the bassoons in the second row.
Additions (like the English Horn, Baritone Oboe, Contrabassoon, Bass Clarinet, etc) would be put with their associated group. Generally, principals sit to the conductor's left, additions to his right.
The organization of an orchestra is hundreds of years old and fairly universal. Clarinets sit with similar instruments (like the oboe, bassoon and flute) in the center of the orchestra.
In the back, but in front of the percussion.
an organ is huge but not part of the orchestra is you want one in the orchestra then the piano
It is a large instrument and would obstruct the view (by the audience) of other instruments and players.
Wherever the conductor wants -- usually right in front of him. Wherever the conductor wants -- usually right in front of him.
They sit in front because wind instruments are louder, so winds are further back.

Generally at the back of the orchestra.
Percussion instruments are typically placed at the back of the orchestra or ensemble, behind the string, woodwind, and brass sections. They are situated in a designated area known as the percussion section, which allows for easy access when changing between different instruments during a performance.
