Question

The number of sub shells present in a stationary shell is???​

Answer 1

Answer:

4 subshells

There are 4 subshells, s, p, d, and f. Each subshell can hold a different number of electrons.

The number of orbitals in a shell is the square of the principal quantum number: 12 = 1, 22 = 4, 32 = 9. There is one orbital in an s subshell (l = 0), three orbitals in a p subshell (l = 1), and five orbitals in a d subshell (l = 2). The number of orbitals in a subshell is therefore 2(l) + 1.
