The answer is: 5 d-orbitals.

Principal quantum number (n) describes the size of the orbital.

There are one s orbital (angular quantum number l=0), three p orbitals (angular quantum number l=1 and magnetic quantum number ml = -1,0,+1) and five d orbitals (angular quantum number l=2 and magnetic quantum number ml = -2,-1,0,+1,+2).

d-orbitals are butterfly shaped.

Answer:

The reason they don't react is because Elements with full octets are stable, the Elements with no unpaired electrons do not react at all in the decay.

What is the mass of a ink pen with triple beam balance

Gnesinka [82]

The mass of an ink pen with a triple beam balance if all the weights positioned to the right would be a maximum of 610 grams which sounds rather heavy for an ink pen but in the absence of necessary information it seems that that would have to be the answer.
