three maximum
starting from 3p
There is one s orbital and three p orbitals and five d orbitals in the third energy level.
In energy level three, there are four types of orbitals: s, p, d, and f. Specifically, the 3s and 3p orbitals are available, as well as the 3d orbitals, which start to fill at this energy level. The 3f orbitals do not exist in the third energy level; they begin in the fourth energy level. Thus, the total number of orbital types at energy level three is three: s, p, and d.
In the second energy level, there are four orbitals - one 2s orbital and three 2p orbitals.
I'm pretty sure its only three
16 orbitals in the 4th energy level. One s orbital, three p orbitals, five d orbitals, seven f orbitals Elements where the 4th principal energy level are filled are:- period 4 4s and 4p (starting with potassium) period 5 4d starting with Yttrium Lanthanides 4f starting with cerium

There are two sublevels in the second principle energy level. The s sublevel has one orbital and the p sublevel has 3, for a total of 4 orbitals.
They can only have 1 S ORBITAL per energy level (1s, 2s, 3s...). Each S orbital consists of 2 electrons of opposite spin.

P orbitals can hold a total of 6 electrons. Each p orbital can accommodate 2 electrons, and there are three p orbitals (px, py, and pz) in a given energy level. Thus, the maximum capacity for p orbitals in an energy level is 3 orbitals × 2 electrons/orbital = 6 electrons.
There are one 3s orbital, three 3p orbitals, and five 3d sublevels.
