In which orbital would the valance electrons for carbon(C) be placed?

Carbon has an atomic number of 6 so its electron configuration will be 1s² 2s² 2p². It has two orbitals as indicated with the 2 as its period number with the outer orbital have 4 valence electrons. So carbon is in the p-orbital, period 2 and in group 4.

i think that the answer is c
