Question

Maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in the subshell with the azimuthal quantum number $l=4$, is:

• A. $10$
• B. $8$
• C. $16$
• D. $18$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $18$

Azimuthal quantum number, $l=4$

Total number of electrons in the subshell$=2(2l+1)$

$=18$

Hence, option D is correct.
