Question

The number of d orbital present in n=3

Answer 1

Explanation:

n corresponds to principle quantum number...

that is it indicates the period number in periodic table..

in d subshell there are 5 orbitals...

therefore in 3d subshell...there are 5 orbitals

Answer 2

There are 5 d orbitals in n = 3.

• There are three possible subshells for the third energy level.

• In the three subshells, there are 9 orbitals in the energy level 3 which can be distributed according to their type of orbitals.
• There are 1 s-type atomic orbital, 3 p-type atomic orbitals, and 5 d-type atomic orbitals.
• There are (1+3+5) orbitals in which d has 5 orbitals.
