Question

What is different between energy sublevel and subshell

Answer 1

Answer:

As nouns the difference between subshell and sublevel

is that subshell is (chemistry|physics) atomic orbitals for which the values of the n and l quantum numbers are the same, such as the three 2p or five 3d atomic orbitals while sublevel is an intermediate level between others in a mine.

Answer 2

In chemistry and atomic physics, an electron shell, or principal energy level, may be thought of as the orbit of one or more electrons around an atom's nucleus. The closest shell to the nucleus is called the "1 shel.

Each shell can contain only a fixed number of electrons: The first shell can hold up to two electrons, the second shell can hold up to eight (2 + 6) electrons, the third shell can hold up to 18 (2 + 6 + 10) and so on.
