Solution
The correct option is Af>d>p>s For a given value of n (principal quantum number), the energy of different subshells can be arranged in the order of f>d>p>s
For a given value of n (principal quantum number), the energy of different subshells increases with increase in the value of the azimuthal quantum number (l).
The value of the azimuthal quantum number (l) for s,p, d and f orbitals is 0, 1, 2 and 3.
