How will four electrons be distributed in three empty 2p atomic orbitals?
A-one electron in each orbital

B-two electrons in one orbital, one in another, one in the third

C-four electrons cannot fill three empty 2p atomic orbitals

D-four in one orbital, none in the other two

B
Orbitals fill in a way that all of them first gain one electron, and then they start receiving the second electron if any are left. Thus, the three will fill with one electron each first and then the fourth will go into the first.
