Answer: There are many possibilities for atomic orbits.

Explanation: In chemistry orbits, or orbitals, are the areas that electrons move around the nucleus of an atom. Think like the solar system.

There are three levels of orbitals (p,d, and f).

That should get you started. Use p, d and d described in your book to find out how many orbitals an atom has.
