maximum number of electrons that can be filled into all the orbitals corresponding to azimuthal quantum number l=3 is
pls help me in this question
Answers
Answer:
14 electrons
Explanation:
Given,
Azimuthal quantum number ( l ) = 3
we have to find the maximum number of electrons that can be filled into all the orbitals having l=3.
So, how to proceed?
firstly,
what we know about azimuthal quantum number?
It shows us the number of angular nodes.
and from this azimuthal quantum number you can easily find the number of orbitals that a particular subshell has.
lets see how?
given l = 3
what are the values my spin quantum number(m) can take?
m can take values starting from -l to +l
so, values m can take: -3, -2, -1, 0 , +1, +2, +3.
so 7 different possibilities of orientation.
so there are 7 orbitals in the f subshell (as l =3 corresponds to f subshell)
So, we have 7 orbitals and in each orbital there can be a maximum of 2 electrons .
Total number of electrons = 14.
Answer:
14 electrons using the formula
2(2l+1)
2(2(3)+1)
2(6+1)
2(7)
=14
