Question

if an orbital contains 3electrons total groups in periodic table would have been ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Thus no of orbitals in various subshell are :

s= 1 orbital

p= 3 orbitals

Explanation:

First we need to calculate :

i) No of subshells

ii) No of orbitals

iii) No of elements

Formula to calculate the number of subshell if number of period is known :

If number of period is even : (n+2)/2

If number of period is odd : (n+1)/2

Here it's the second case i.e,

the number of period is even=2

Therefore (n+2)/2 = (2+2)/2 = 2

Which means it consists 2 types of subshell

Thus no of orbitals in various subshell are :

s= 1 orbital

p= 3 orbitals
