Answer:

put 2 arrows in each box. one pointing up, the other pointing down. these represent electrons with opposite spins. only two electrons can reside in an orbital. the 1s sublevel has 2 electrons, the 2s sublevel has 2 electrons as well, the 2p sublevel has 6, and so on. just remember not to put any more than 2 electrons in each orbital
