Question

What is the lowest value of n that allows g orbitals to exist?

NCERT Class XII
Chemistry - Main Course Book I

Chapter 2. Structure of Atom

Answer 1

the number of orbitals in a shell n is  equal to  n....

n = 1      s orbital..  l =0
n  = 2...  the number of orbitals = 2.. s and p
n = 3    the number of orbitals = 3...    s p  and  d..
n = 4      the number of orbitals...      s  p d  and f..

the lowest value of n ....  for g orbitals to exist in that shell....  = g..
