A half filled sub-shell is more stable than other partially filled shells. As an example use Chromium. It should by logic have the following: Sc = [Ar]4s23d1 Ti = [Ar]4s23d2 V = [Ar]4s23d3 Cr should in theory be Cr = [Ar]4s23d4 but it is not. Half filled shells are more stable so the configuration is Cr = [Ar]4s13d5 two half filled sub levels and then Manganese is Mn = [Ar]4s23d5 one full and one half filled level.
Metals with their s and d sublevels partially filled are in transition metals group. For example, in the 4th period, scandium (Sc) has the electron configuration [Ar] 3d1 4s2 with partially filled 3d and filled 4s sublevels.
Elements in period 5 of the periodic table have a total of four sub-shells: s, p, d, and f. The electron configuration of these elements includes the 5s, 5p, and 4d sub-shells, with the 4f sub-shell being filled in the subsequent period (period 6). Therefore, the total number of sub-shells available for elements in period 5 is four.
Four sub-shells: s, p, d, f . Only artificially / theoretically in quantum mechanics there is a 5th sub shell 'g' and maybe 'h' is the 6th
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.

It depends whether it can exist alone or has a pair. Some atoms have semi-filled outer shells of electrons (sub-atomic particles) and therefore need to be covalently bonded with another molecule in order to be stable. Others can exist alone.

Almost all magnetism is caused by electrons.Individual electrons have an intrinsic magnetic moment.In an atom, the electron's angular motion around the nucleus also causes a magnetic moment.Since all solid materials are composed of atoms and include electrons, the question becomes: why aren't all materials magnetic?Many atoms only have paired electrons, with the intrinsic magnetic moment of each electron cancelled out by the intrinsic magnetic moment of its paired electron.Many atoms only have "filled sub-shells", which have zero net angular motion.Atoms with either unpaired electrons, or unfilled sub-shells, or both, are inherently magnetic. However, in many materials, the magnetic moments of these atoms point in random directions, so they cancel out and the bulk material is nonmagnetic.It is to do with the pairing of electrons and their dipoles. Basically metals with uneven electrons or half shells are magnetic. Three main metals that are Iron, Cobolt and Nickel. With Iron being the main one.Hope this helps! =]
The d-sub level section of elements on the periodic table is often referred to as the "transition metals." These elements are located in groups 3 to 12 and have partially filled d orbitals in their electron configurations.
