How many electrons can occupy the f orbitals at each energy level? Chemistry Electron Configuration s,p,d,f Orbitals 1 Answer Nam D. Mar 20, 2018 It should be #14# electrons. Explanation: The #f# subshell has a total of seven orbitals, and each orbital can hold two electrons, and so the #f# subshell can hold a total of #7*2=14# electrons.
