Q45 / 180 · NEET 2016 (Phase 2) · Chemistry

How many electrons can fit in each orbital for which $n = 3$ and $l = 1$ ?

A
$2$
Correct answer
B
$6$
C
$10$
D
$14$

Solution

\(\mathrm{n}=3 \text { and } \mathrm{l}=1\) \(\Rightarrow 3 \mathrm{p}\) orbital so 3p orbital can accommodate 6 electrons.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
