Sublevels are subdivisions of electron shells in an atom, representing different energy states where electrons can reside. The main sublevels are s, p, d, and f, each with distinct shapes and capacities: the s sublevel has a spherical shape and can hold 2 electrons, p has a dumbbell shape and holds 6 electrons, d has a more complex shape and accommodates 10 electrons, and f has an even more complex shape capable of holding 14 electrons. The order of filling these sublevels follows the Aufbau principle, which determines the electron configuration of atoms.
s orbital for helium and p orbitals for other noble gases.
None of the noble gases have 5 sublevels. All noble gases have electron configurations that end in an s or p sublevel.
Depends on what one means by "smaller". Since sublevels are "inside" or part of the principle energy level, then yes, they are smaller.
Actually, it's the other way around. Electrons of transition metals fill d-sublevels, while electrons of inner transition metals fill f-sublevels. Inner transition metals are located in the f-block of the periodic table, while transition metals are located in the d-block.
The hydrogen (H) sublevel, which corresponds to the 1s orbital, can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. Each sublevel can accommodate a specific number of electrons based on its type: s sublevels can hold 2, p sublevels can hold 6, d sublevels can hold 10, and f sublevels can hold 14 electrons. Therefore, for hydrogen, the single 1s sublevel has 2 electrons.

No, electrons of inner transition metals fill f-sublevels, while electrons of transition metals fill d-sublevels. Inner transition metals have their f-sublevels as part of their electron configuration, whereas transition metals have d-sublevels as part of their electron configuration.
The Subterranean Complex has nine sublevels. The boss, a Man-at-Legs, is on the final sublevel, and there are Candypop Buds to create more Pikmin on sublevels four and eight.
In the element krypton, the third energy level has 3 sublevels: s, p, and d. The s and p sublevels are filled first before the d sublevel. This means that in krypton, the 4s and 4p sublevels are filled, while the 4d sublevel remains empty.
The sublevels that contain valence electrons in an atom of argon (Ar) are the 3s and 3p sublevels. Argon has a total of 8 valence electrons.
s orbital for helium and p orbitals for other noble gases.
they diffrentiate
Correct. Filled energy sublevels have electrons occupying all available orbitals within the sublevel, while partially filled sublevels have some orbitals unfilled. This is a result of the rules governing electron configuration in atoms.
The outermost s sublevel of the representative elements is filled first, followed by the p sublevel. This results in the outermost electron configuration being in the s and p sublevels.
There are two energy sublevels in the second energy level - the s sublevel and the p sublevel. The s sublevel can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the p sublevel can hold a maximum of 6 electrons.
