When p orbitals become delocalized to form pi bonds, they typically create a system of overlapping p orbitals that can extend over multiple atoms. In a conjugated system, for example, each p orbital contributes to the delocalized pi system, resulting in one pi orbital for each participating p orbital. Therefore, the number of resulting delocalized pi orbitals corresponds to the number of adjacent atoms with p orbitals involved in the delocalization.
When three atomic orbitals of a central atom mix, they typically form three hybrid orbitals. This process is known as hybridization, and it occurs to accommodate the geometry and bonding requirements of the molecule. The resulting hybrid orbitals can adopt various shapes, depending on the types of atomic orbitals mixed and the molecular geometry, such as trigonal planar or pyramidal configurations.
five atomic orbitals must be mixed into one ; one s orbital; three p orbital; one d orbital, forming sp3d orbital
Ne has three p-orbitals.
The 3rd period contains 2 of the 3 orbitals for the third sublevel. It has the s and p orbitals in it.

The number of molecular orbitals in the system depends on the number of atomic orbitals that are combined. If two atomic orbitals combine, they form two molecular orbitals: a bonding orbital and an antibonding orbital. So, in general, the number of molecular orbitals in a system is equal to the number of atomic orbitals that are combined.

7 Orbitals
3 because that is the number of bonds it has already
When two atomic orbitals interact, they produce two molecular orbitals.

Assuming you mean two sets of p orbitals on adjacent atoms only one sigma bond can be formed, by the p orbitals that point between the atoms to form an axial bond. The lobes that are at right angles , ( two unused p orbitals on each atom) could form pi bonds.
Ne has three p-orbitals.
Each orbital in Xenon has its full complement of electrons.
An atom with sp2 hybridization has one unhybridized p orbital. This is because one s orbital and two p orbitals are used to form the sp2 hybrid orbitals, leaving one p orbital unhybridized.
