(a) An atomic orbital has n = 3. What are the possible values of l?
(b) What is the maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in a shell with principal quantum number n ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) When principal quantum number n =3, then the possible values of I will be between 0. and 2
Therefore, the possible values of "l" will be 0, 1 and 2.
(b) The maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in a shell with principal quantum number n is `2n^2?.`
