Maximum number of electrons that can be present in N shell is ______

A

18

B

32

C

2

D

8

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
N-shell `implies` n = 4
We know that, maximum number of electrons present in an orbit `= 2n^2`
= No. of electrons in .N. shell `= 2 xx 4^2 = 2 xx 16 = 32`
