Answer:
SEVEN orbitals.
Expanation :
The orbitals come from the quantum numbers needed to solve the Schrödinger equation.
The principal quantum number n , determines the energy of the orbital. Allowed values are n=1,2,3,4,…
The azimuthal quantum number l, determines the shape of the orbital. Allowed values are integers from 0 to n .l=3 corresponds to an f orbital.
The magnetic quantum number , determines how many orbitals there are in the subshell. Allowed values are integers from
are-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3
.
