Solution
The correct option is C 6s
1. 4f is closer to nucleous and not 6s.
2. But still 6s fills first because aufbau
rule states that electrons fill first in orbitals with lower energy (i.e. lower
value of sum of principal quantum number and azimuthal quantum number).
3. Don't confuse with energy, the one with
lower principal quantum number will be inner.
