What is the maximum number of electrons that can be placed in each subshell?A. `2l^(2)`B. `2(l +1 )`C. `2(2l +2)`D. `2(2l +1)` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D Each subshell of quantum number l contains `(2l +1)` orbitals. For example, if `l = 1`, there are three `p` orbitals. No more than two electrons can be placed in each orbitals. Therefore, the maximum number of electrons is simply twice the number fo orbitals that are employed. |
