Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
- $ n=4\ell =0 $
$ m_{e}=9.10938356 \times 10^{-31} , \text{kg} $ $ \ell =2;m_{e}=-1,0,+1 $ $ \ell =2;,m_{e}=-2,,-1,,0,,1,,2 $ $ \ell =3;,m_{e}=-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3 $ There are three orbitals having $ m_{l}=+1 $ thus maximum number of electrons in them will be 6.
