Detailed Solution

The electrical arrangement of chromium is 1S2 2S2 2P6 3S2 3P6 4S1 3d5. So subshell's m value is 0, p subshell's m value is 1,0, 1, and d subshell's m value is 2, 1, 0, 1, 2. Consequently, p has 1 orbital with m=0 and 1 d orbital with m=0. Therefore, the total number of electrons will be 2+2+2+2+2+1+1=12.
