Answer:
Explanation:
The electrons are filled in orbitals in order of their increasing energy level.
If n = 5, there are 4 orbitals
5s, 5p. 5d, 5f
The energy level of these orbitals is found by value of (n+l) value
l values of s, p, d and f orbitals are 0, 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Thus
5s = 5 + 0 = 5
5p = 5 + 1 = 6
5d = 5 + 2 =7
5f = 5 + 3 = 8
Hence order of filling of electrons: 5s 5p 5d 5f
