The sub-level that contains a maximum of three pairs of electrons is the p sub-level. Each p sub-level can hold a maximum of six electrons, meaning it can accommodate up to three pairs of electrons.
None. Zinc fills up its 3d sublevel with 10 electrons, all pairs. So, there are no remaining unpaired electrons
Elemental nitrogen has 7 electrons.Thus, the first (or K) shell of electrons contains 2 of them (the maximum that the K shell can accommodate).The second (or L) shell of electrons contains the remaining 5, however, the maximum number of electrons that the L shell can accommodate is 8.Therefore, elemental nitrogen has three unpaired electrons that can be used to form covalent bonds.In ammonia (NH3) all three of those unpaired electrons are paired with hydrogen atoms.Leaving only a single unshared pair of electrons in the L shell.Technically, the pair of electrons in the K shell are also an "unshared" pair but they are unavailable for covalent activity so are generally not considered as such.
The 5p subshell is a p-subshell, and as such is filled by 6 electrons - three pairs spinning in opposite directions.The number of electrons in each subshell is as follows:Subshell s p d f theoretical next subshellsNo. of e- 2 6 10 14 18, 22, 26, etc.
there is only 1 lone pair present in BrF5 there are 7 electrons in Br valence shell from which 5 electrons went to make bond with F, while the remaining two makes a lone pair. and thus anly 1 lone pair exist in BrF5
Two atoms sharing three pairs of electrons have a triple bond.
None. Zinc fills up its 3d sublevel with 10 electrons, all pairs. So, there are no remaining unpaired electrons

Lone-pair electrons, Bonded pairs of electrons
An HCl molecule contains 3 nonbonding pairs..
No, when carbon and oxygen bond, the molecule typically contains four pairs of bonding electrons between them. This leads to the formation of compounds such as carbon dioxide (CO2) or carbon monoxide (CO).
A triple covalent bond contains six electrons: two electrons from each of the three atoms involved. The atoms share these electrons to form a strong bond by overlapping their orbitals. This results in a stable molecular structure.
Electrons exist as pairs. Although, electrons hate each other, and only go as pairs as a last resort.

The pairs of valence electrons that do not participate in bonding in a diatomic oxygen molecule are called lone pairs. These pairs of electrons are not involved in forming the double bond between the oxygen atoms in O2.
Ammonia contains N and H atoms. There are 3 bonding pairs.
1molecule of C2H6 contains 2 carbon atoms
There are three lone pairs present in chlorine atom
