What is the maximum number of electrons in an atom that can have quantum numbers n 4 ml =+ 1 A 4 B 16 C 6 D 2?

Text Solution

`4``15``3``6`

Solution : <img src="https://d10lpgp6xz60nq.cloudfront.net/physics_images/RS_P1_CHM_C02_E01_209_S01.png" width="80%"> <br> Thus, we have three possible orbitals with `n = 4, m_(l) = +1`. They are `4p, 4d`, and `4f` orbitals. Since no more than two eletrons can be placed in each orbital, the maximum number of electrons will be six.

Maximum number of electrons in an atom that can have the quantum numbers n =4, m e =+1 is:A. 3B. 5C. 6D. 8
