Why do electrons occupy 3p orbitals after filling the 3s orbital only ?

• The order of filling is said to be obtained by starting at the top of the diagram and following the arrows.
• This process gives the order of filling of orbitals with electrons according to this sequence:
1s > 2s > 2p > 3s > 3p > 4s > 3d > 4p > 5s > 4d
and so on.
•This diagram, when combined with a knowledge of how many electrons can be accommodated in each kind of orbital and the number of such available orbitals in each shell, is now supposed to give us a prediction of the complete electronic configuration of all but about 20 atoms in which further irregularities occur, such as the cases of chromium and copper.

hope it helps.
