Question

The 4s orbital has more energy than the 3p orbital. Is it true? Justify your answer by stating the principle

Answer 1

Answer:

yes it is true

Explanation:

energy can be calculated by (n+l) rule

where n stand for principal quantum number n l is asimuthal quantum number

for 4s (n+l) is (4+0)= 4

for 3p (n+l) is (3+1)=4

both n+l values are same so priority goes to higher principal quantum number
