Maximum number of electrons in a sub-she...

Maximum number of electrons in a sub-shell of an atom is determined by the following.

A

4l + 2

B

2l + 1

C

4l - 2

D

`2n^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The number of sub shell is (2l + 1). The maximum number of electrons in the sub shell is `2(2l+1)=(4l+2)`.
