p-orbitals.
A possible last sublevel for an element in group 18 of the periodic table (noble gases) is f. The noble gases have completely filled s and p orbitals, and the f orbitals would be the next in line for additional electrons.
None of the noble gases have 5 sublevels. All noble gases have electron configurations that end in an s or p sublevel.
Noble gases
Noble Gas Configurations
This is the family of noble gases (group 18).
The p-block on the periodic table is the chunk of mostly nonmetals starting at group 13 that ends at the Noble gases on the far right side.
The valence electron shell of noble gases is full.
it only fills the S sublevel

Noble Gas Configurations
This is the family of noble gases (group 18).
Helium has 2 valence electrons. All other noble gases have 8 valence electrons.
The 3p sublevel is completed by the noble gas element Argon (Ar) which has 18 electrons in total.
Noble gases have completely filled orbitals / energy levels. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2 valence electrons) and have stable electronic configuration.
Group 18 contains eight valence electrons, namely the noble gases.
