- f has 14 electrons in 7 sublevel orbitals,
- d has 10 electrons in 5 sublevel orbitals,
- p has 6 electrons in 3 sublevel orbitals,
- s has 2 electrons in 1 sublevel orbital.

∙ 11y agoany orbital always contains 2 electrons , so for example : How many electrons can fit in an f Orbital?
Answer : 2 electrons .. ( for any orbital it will always be 2 electrons )
But for Sub levels you multiply its orbitals x2 for example d = 5 orbitals ( 5 x 2 ) = 10 electrons
So a d sub level can contain 10 electrons. Pay attention to the difference between " sub level" and "orbital".

∙ 11y ago14 electrons maximum

∙ 12y agoI think its 14 total. (7 orbitals)

How many electrons can the d sub level hold?
10. The d sublevel has 5 orbitals that can each hold two electrons of opposite spin.
How many electrons can the S sublevel hold?
there are two electons in the s sublevel. It is the number of electrons that fit in the first orbital around an atom.
How many 2p orbitals are there and what is the number of electrons they can hold?
There are three 2p orbitals and each can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins, for a total of 6 electrons. This is true of the p sublevel in any energy level, except for the first energy level, which does not have a p sublevel.
Why can a p sublevel hold 6 electrons while the s sublevel can hold no more than 2 electrons?
because sublevel p has 3 orbital and each orbital can hold up to 2 electrons meanwhile sublevel s only has 1 orbital and each can hold 2 electrons therefore sublevel p can hold more
What is the maxium number of electrons in sublevel f?
It depends on which subshell you're speaking of.. remember the the Lewis Structures? Well the 1st subshell will have 2 electrons 2nd Subshell : 8 e- 3rd : 18 e- 4th : 32 e- Above that I've never had to do any structures with more than 4 subshells and even those are VERY rare and I'm doing Uni chem. Hope this helps a bit. peace
How many total electrons can the d orbitals in a sublevel hold?
The d sublevel consists of five orbitals that can hold a maximum of two electrons each. The total maximum number of electrons that the d sublevel can hold is 10 electrons.
How many total electrons can the d orbitals in a sublevel?
The d sublevel consists of five orbitals that can hold a maximum of two electrons each. The total maximum number of electrons that the d sublevel can hold is 10 electrons.

What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the 6s subshell?
6th energy level can hold 72 electrons. (has s,p,d,f,g, and h subshells)
What is the maximum number of electrons that an atomic orbital can hold?
An orbital can have a maximum of two electrons that have different sets of the four quantum numbers (n, l, ml, ms).
How many orbitals are in a p subshell?
6 electrons in 3 orbitals of p-sublevel: px, py and pz
What is the maximum number of electrons that the orbitals can hold all together?
Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons.
