Question: The maximum number of electrons present in an orbit $ l=3 $ , is [Pb. PMT 2004]
Options:
A) 6
B) 8
C) 10
D) 14
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
Azimuthal quantum number (l) = 3 shows the presence of f orbit, which contain seven orbitals and each orbital have 2 electrons. Hence $ 7\times 2=14 $ electrons.
