What factors determine the energy of an electron in a multi-electron atom?

Options

  1. APrincipal quantum number (shell)
  2. BAzimuthal quantum number (subshell)
  3. CSpin quantum number
  4. DMagnetic quantum number

Correct answer

A. Principal quantum number (shell)

Step-by-step solution

The energy of an electron in a multi-electron atom depends not only on its principal quantum number (shell) but also on its azimuthal quantum number (subshell).
