Question

Hiw many electrons can fit in the orbital for which n=3 and l=1

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:-Principal quantum number=3Azimuthal quantum number=1(p orbital)So, orbital is 3p.Hence,a total of 6 electrons can fit in the orbital.

Answer 2

Answer:

Hence total 6 electrons can fit for n=3 and l=1

This means each orbital will contain two electrons. There exist three p orbitals. Each electron will combine with three orbitals; finally, you will find six electrons will fit into the orbit.
