Answer: The statement is false
Explanation:
Electrons occupy a region in atoms known as orbitals or subs hell. These orbitals include
I) S-orbital: it can occupy a maximum of two electrons
II) P-orbital: It occupies a maximum of six electrons
III) D-orbital: it occupies a maximum of ten electrons
F and G-orbitals as examples of other orbitals present.
A good illustration of the 6 electrons occupied by the P-subshell is seen in Sodium (Na) with atomic number of 11
Na = 1s2, 2S2 2p6, 3s1
Note: extra electrons are transferred to the next orbital
