if each orbital can hold a maximum of 3 electrons, then how many elements in 9th period of the periodic table(long form) .

give answer with explanation.

Eachshellcancontain only a fixednumber of electrons: The 1st shellcan holdup to two...However, this is not a strict requirement: Atoms mayhavetwo or eventhreeincomplete outer shells.....The firstelementstohavemorethan32electronsin one shell would belong to the g-block ofperiod8 of theperiodic table.
