n can take values like 1,2,3..
l can take values from 0 to (n-1)
This means l can’t be greater than n.
Now lets look at all the possible combinations to get n+l=5
They would be-
n=3 l=2n=4 l=1n=5 l=0
Now lets look at all cases one by one -
n=3 , l=2
it would mean 3d orbital which can accomodate maximum 10 electrons.
