Question

The maximum no of electron in subshell of an atom is determined by

Answer 1

4l + 2
total no. of subshell - 2l + 1
max no of electrons in subshell - 2(2l + 1) =4l + 1

Answer 2

Answer:

There are four types of orbitals including s, p, d and f, and each subshell has definite number of electrons.

Explanation:

The maximum no of an electron in subshell of an atom is determined by the formula of 4l+2.

Where l = number of subshells

Total number of subshells = (2l+1)

Maximum number electron in a subshell =2(2l+1) = 4l+2.

For example: Let's calculate maximum no of an electron in 4 subshell.

maximum no of electron = 4 x 4 + 2

                                         = 18 electrons

Hence, the correct answer is 4l+2.
