A subshell n = 3 , l = 2 can accommodate maximum of
Options
- A10   electrons
- B6   electrons
- C18   electrons
- D16   electrons
Correct answer
A. 10   electrons
Step-by-step solution
Principal quantum number ( n ) : (Proposed by Bohr) It describes the size of the electron wave and the total energy of the electron. It has integral values   1 ,   2 ,   3 ,   4 . . . . ,   etc., and is denoted by K ,   L ,   M ,   N .   . . . . n Subshell 1 s 2 s, p 3 s, p,d 4 s, p, d, f Azimuthal quantum number ( l ) :- It describes the shape of electron cloud and number of subshell in a shell. l Subshell 0 s 1 p 2 d 3 f So, for n = 3 ,   l = 2 , this represents t
