You can differentiate between a 2s and a 2p subshell based on their shape. The 2s subshell is spherically symmetric and has one orbital. On the other hand, the 2p subshell has a dumbbell shape and consists of three orbitals: px, py, and pz, each oriented along separate axes.
The "p" subshell has a dumbbell shape. It consists of three orbitals (px, py, pz), each oriented along one of the three coordinate axes. The lobes of the dumbbell-shaped orbitals point in opposite directions.
A 2s subshell and a 2p subshell can be distinguished by their shape and energy levels. The 2s subshell is spherical and has a lower energy than the 2p subshell, which has a dumbbell shape and is oriented along specific axes (x, y, z). Additionally, the 2s subshell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the 2p subshell can hold up to 6 electrons. These differences in shape, energy, and electron capacity help identify each subshell.
The primary difference between an s subshell and a d subshell orbital is their shape and orientation. S subshell orbitals are spherical in shape and are found at the nucleus, while d subshell orbitals have cloverleaf or butterfly shapes and are oriented along axes passing through the nucleus. Additionally, d orbitals have more complex shapes due to their higher angular momentum quantum number.

Azimuthal quantum number
The maximum number of unpaired electrons in the s subshell is 2, in the p subshell is 6, in the d subshell is 10, and in the f subshell is 14. This is based on the maximum number of electrons that can occupy each subshell according to the Aufbau principle and the Pauli exclusion principle.
It is 's' subshell.

The second quantum number, or "l" which describes the subshell (s, p, d, f, etc).
The primary difference between an s subshell and a d subshell orbital is their shape and orientation. S subshell orbitals are spherical in shape and are found at the nucleus, while d subshell orbitals have cloverleaf or butterfly shapes and are oriented along axes passing through the nucleus. Additionally, d orbitals have more complex shapes due to their higher angular momentum quantum number.
