The sub-level s of energy that make the o shell is the K-shell.
You can tell the difference between a 2s sub-shell and 2p sub-shell from their energy levels, because a 2p sub-shell is a higher energy level than a 2s sub-shell.
The n value for the 6g sublevel is 6. The principal quantum number (n) represents the energy level or shell in the electron configuration. In this case, the electron is in the 6th energy level.
The designation of the fifth sub-shell is 5s, 5p, 5d, and 5f, corresponding to the different types of orbitals that can exist in that energy level. Each type of orbital has a specific shape and can hold a certain number of electrons: s (2 electrons), p (6 electrons), d (10 electrons), and f (14 electrons). Thus, the fifth energy level can accommodate a maximum of 50 electrons when considering all of its sub-shells.
== Answer== Generally, each sub-shell has its own energy. The sub-shells, listed in order of energy with the number of orbitals in that sub-shell, with the number of electrons each one occupies, are:1s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons2s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons2p: 3 orbitals, 6 electrons3s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons3p: 3 orbitals, 6 electrons4s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons3d: 5 orbitals, 10 electrons4p: 3 orbitals, 6 electronsetc.So, in the first four separate energy levels or sub-shell (1s, 2s, 2p, and 3s) there are 2 + 2+ 6 + 2 = 12 electrons. Note that in these first four sub-shells there are 6 orbitals (with 2 electrons each).
The second shell of an atom has two sub-shells: the 2s and 2p sub-shells. The 2s sub-shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the 2p sub-shell can hold a maximum of 6 electrons, allowing the second shell to accommodate a total of 8 electrons.

A break down of 2d1:2 = the quantum energy level or electron shell denoted as 'n'd = the sub-shell of the energy level (known as a degenerate level)1 = the number of electrons occupying the sub-shell.Through extensive research by scientists, no known element has a d sub-shell in the second (n=2) energy level. In fact, the d sub-shell does not appear until the fourth period (fourth row).The first d sub-shell is known to be in the third energy level (therefore the first energy level with this sub-shell is 3d, but not 2d).Transition metals are the elements known to fill the d sub-shells. The first transition metal in the periodic table is scandium (Sc) with the electron configuration of [Ar]4s23d1.The reasons for the formation of sub-shell of d is beyond my knowledge and the scope of basic chemistry.
Any electron is not fixed to any sub-shell or orbital. If you provide sufficient energy to an electron, it would make transition to any of the higher energy orbitals and then come back to the lower orbitals radiating energy.
The atomic no of Boron is 5 , so two electrons in ist shell the last three electrons are divided in two sub energy levels two in lower level 's' and one in higher level 'p'
The n value for the 6g sublevel is 6. The principal quantum number (n) represents the energy level or shell in the electron configuration. In this case, the electron is in the 6th energy level.
Sub energy pretty much explains itself: It is below energy level
The azimuthal quantum number (l) is also known as the sub-shell quantum number. It represents the sub-shell of an electron within a given energy level. The value of l determines the shape of the orbital (s, p, d, f).
The number beside the letter represents the energy level. The letter represents the sub level. The exponent represents the number of electrons in the sub level. So in the case of: 1s^2 1 is the energy level; S is the sub level; ^2 is the number of electrons in the sub level.

No, the highest energy levels in shells are not always filled first. Electrons fill atomic orbitals starting from the lowest energy level and move to higher energy levels according to the Aufbau principle. This means that within a shell, sub-levels with lower energy (e.g., s before p, p before d) are filled before those with higher energy. Therefore, the filling order is determined by energy levels and sub-levels rather than simply by shell numbers.
