I believe the correct answer is C. I’m sure that it isn’t A. I’m not 100% sure but I just took biology and I think the answer is C. Have a nice day
The s orbital can hold up to two electrons while the p orbital can hold up to six electrons.
An atoms satisfying the octet rule means that this atom has eight electrons in its outermost energy level (which is the maximum number of electrons that can be found in a single level and makes the atom stable).
For this to happen, two electrons must occupy the s orbital and 6 electrons must occupy the p orbital. This makes a total of eight electrons.
Therefore, the right choice is:
<span>d) both full s orbital and full p orbital</span>
