(a) indicate which orbitals in the following list fill before the 4p orbitals. 3d 4s 4d 5s (b) what is the maximum number of electrons in the 4s subshell? (c) an electron in an orbital has the following quantum numbers: n

Respuesta :

a. In the following list 4s orbital can be filled before 4p orbital.

b. The maximum number of electrons in 4s subshell is 2.

c. An electron in an orbital has 4 quantum numbers n, l, ml, ms.

According to the Aufbau principle, electrons first occupy lower-energy atomic orbitals before moving on to higher-energy ones. Hence 4s orbitals filled before 4p followed by filled d orbitals. similarly the maximum capacity of s subshell to hold electron  is 2, while p subshell is 6, 10 for d subshell and 14 for f subshell. Electron in an orbital can be completely described by principle quantum number n which represents the main electronic shell, Azimuthal quantum number l determines an orbital's shape, magnetic quantum number ml defines how many orbits there are and how they are oriented within a subshell and spin quantum number ms describes the spin of electrons.
