In QM, 6p electrons are arranged along the coordinate axes in the second period in addition to the two 2s electrons:

<aside> 📌 Presumtion: In the octant approach, each of the 8 electrons in the second and third shells are distributed in one octant. ↓21↓

The electrons can then be distinguished with the number triple X,Y,Z.

For a unit circle: +1,+1,+1 +1,+1,-1 +1,-1,-1 +1,-1,+1 -1,+1,+1 -1,+1,-1 -1,-1,-1 -1,-1,+1

This approach corresponds to LEWIS's cube model of the electron arrangement in the atom.
