The elements which falls under the group 16 has 4 electrons in its outer p orbital...
The element belongs to Group 3 of the periodic table. This is because the outermost electron configuration is 3d^(1)4s^(2), where the d orbital has one electron and the ns orbital has two electrons.
Yes, an outer ring (or outer shell) of a metal can have more than four electrons. In general, transition metals and some post-transition metals can have varying numbers of electrons in their outer shells, often exceeding four. However, the specific number of outer electrons depends on the particular metal and its position in the periodic table. For instance, elements in groups 1 and 2 have fewer than four outer electrons, while transition metals can have more due to their d-electrons.
The orbital diagram for chromium with atomic number 24 would show two electrons in the 1s orbital, two electrons in the 2s orbital, six electrons in the 2p orbital, six electrons in the 3s orbital, two electrons in the 3p orbital, and four electrons in the 3d orbital. This configuration would follow the aufbau principle and Hund's rule.
No, atoms with more than four outer electrons are generally not classified as metals. Instead, they tend to be nonmetals or metalloids. Metals typically have fewer than four electrons in their outer shell and tend to lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas nonmetals usually gain or share electrons. The classification of elements as metals or nonmetals is primarily based on their position in the periodic table.
carbon has totally six electrons. Out of these, four electrons are in the valence shell or the outer most shell.

Be (beryllium) has four electrons total: the first orbital, the 1s orbital, has two, which leaves two electrons in the outer shell.
The element belongs to Group 3 of the periodic table. This is because the outermost electron configuration is 3d^(1)4s^(2), where the d orbital has one electron and the ns orbital has two electrons.
Ne 3s23p4 refers to the electron configuration of an atom of the element neon. It indicates that neon has two electrons in the 3s orbital and four electrons in the 3p orbital, giving a total of 10 electrons in its outer shell. Neon is a noble gas and is stable due to having a complete outer shell.

An atom with six protons would be a carbon atom. It would have six electrons, two in the first shell, the 1s orbital, and four in the second shell, two 2s electrons and two 2p electrons. The 2p orbital is further out than the 2s, so depending how detailed you want to be there are either four in the second shell, or two in the 2p orbital.
The outer orbital, or valence shell, around the nucleus of an atom possess what are commonly called valence shell electrons. They represent the electrons available to share with another atom for the formation of covalent bonds between atoms. For Na, or sodium, in its standard atomic state there is only 1 valence shell electron. This number increases as you go to the right across the periodic table until the number of valence shell electrons reaches 8. This is noted by the Column number (i.e. I, II, III, etc.). Carbon has four, Nitrogen has five, Oxygen has 6, and Fluorine has 7. Xenon, Argon and the other 8th column elements are called the noble gases and they all have 8 valence electrons.
The orbital diagram for chromium with atomic number 24 would show two electrons in the 1s orbital, two electrons in the 2s orbital, six electrons in the 2p orbital, six electrons in the 3s orbital, two electrons in the 3p orbital, and four electrons in the 3d orbital. This configuration would follow the aufbau principle and Hund's rule.
The orbital notation for oxygen is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^4. This indicates that oxygen has two electrons in the 1s orbital, two electrons in the 2s orbital, and four electrons in the 2p orbital.
Carbon has four electrons in its outer shell and needs four more electrons to complete its octet.
Carbon and Silicon both have four valence electrons as well as other group four elements.
Carbon has 6 total electrons: 2 located in the 1s orbital, 2 located in the 2s orbital, and 2 in 2p orbitals. 2+2+2=6.
