your question is -- Total number of orbitals associated with third shell will be _______
(i) 2
(ii) 4
(iii) 9
(iv) 3
answer : option (iii) 9
explanation : There are three subshells present in 3rd electron shell. These are 3s, 3p, 3d.
we know,
s -subshell has only one orbital.
p-subshell has three orbitals.
d-subshell has five orbitals.
so, total number of orbitals associated with 3rd shell = 1 + 3 + 5 = 9
hence, there are nine orbitals associated with 3rd shell.
