yes every shell has its subshell and they are arranged in the increasing order of their energy

To understand orbitals and subshell, you need to know what a wavefunction is.

In classical mechanics, there is a wave equation, that supposed to describe the wave. Sound waves is described in terms of pressure density and waves on a string in terms of displacement.




Looks scary, but its not. The first part of the LHS is for Kinetic energy, second part of LHS is V(x)psi for potential energy and RHS is total energy.

We can strip down the equation, assume PE = 0, make the electron move only in x direction, and force it to move only in a fixed “well” and see how it behave. Lot of intresting things happen.

We learn some intresting things about the nature of psi when it tries to move in a well. By a well, I mean and fixed space of length L when electron can move only in x direction, no ups and downs, and after L, there is infinite PE, which makes psi equal to 0.
