    Answer :
    The maximum number of electrons:

      s sublevel: 2 electrons,
      p sublevel: 6 electrons,
      d sublevel: 10 electrons,
      f sublevel : 14 electrons.

    Explanation :
    The subshells s, p, d, and f contain 1, 3, 5, 7 orbitals respectively.
    where, every orbital can hold up to two electrons maximum.
