Question

The maximum number of electrons that can be filled into all the orbitals corresponding to the azimuthal quanta number L=3 is

Answer 1

S = L = o
p = L = 1
d = L = 2
f = L =3
so for L= 3 that is it "f" subshell and maximum number of electron in f subshell is "14".

Answer 2

Answer:

For azimuthal quanta number L=3, possible values of no. of orbitals  m = 2L+1=7.

For each m, there can be 2 electrons filled.

Hence , maximum number of electrons  that can be filled into all the orbitals corresponding to the azimuthal quanta number L=3 is =2×7=14.

Explanation:

• The azimuthal  quantum number is defined as the  shape of a given orbital.
• Its value is equal to the total number of angular nodes in the orbital.

• It is denoted by the symbol 'L'.
