20
7
12
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
- $ _{26}Fe-1s^{2},2s^{2}2p^{6},3s^{2}3p^{6},3d^{6},4s^{2} $
$ \ell +m=0 $
$ \rightarrow $ $ \ell =0,,m=0 $ i.e. s-subshell $ \ell =1,m=-1 $ i.e. one orbital of p subshell. $ \ell =2,m=2 $ i.e. one of d-orbitals'
Hence there are 13 of 14 electrons as in d-orbital it may be one or two electrons having $ m=-2 $
