There can only be 2 electrons in each single orbital, and they will be on opposite sides of the electron cloud (orbital).
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy one orbital is two. This is due to the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers. Therefore, one orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons, each with opposite spins.
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.
There is one subshell in the f orbital, which can hold a maximum of 14 electrons. This subshell has seven orbitals: 5f with each of the orbitals capable of holding 2 electrons.
In the principal quantum number ( n = 1 ), there is only one type of orbital, which is the 1s orbital. This means there is a total of one orbital (the 1s) present at this energy level. Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons, so the 1s orbital can accommodate up to two electrons.
A one s orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons. These electrons must have opposite spins, as dictated by the Pauli exclusion principle. The s orbital is spherical in shape and is the lowest energy orbital in an atom.
Each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
Any orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons
An atom can have only one 1s orbital. This orbital can hold up to a maximum of 2 electrons.
The maximum number of electrons that can occupy one orbital is two. This is due to the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers. Therefore, one orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons, each with opposite spins.

2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
There is one subshell in the f orbital, which can hold a maximum of 14 electrons. This subshell has seven orbitals: 5f with each of the orbitals capable of holding 2 electrons.
There is one 7s orbital with two sub-orbitals: 7s(+1/2) and 7s(-1/2) . A picture of this 7s orbital is in 'Related links'
2 ELECTRONS in one orbital. (An electron can only be in one orbital at once)
There is 1 5s orbital
Helium has only two electrons, and they share one orbital (forming a complementary pair).
