4 d , 5 p , 5 f and 6 p orbitals are arranged in the order of decreasing energy. The correct option is:

4d, 5p, 5f and 6p orbitals are arranged in the order of decreasing energy. The correct option is:
  1. 5f>6p>5p>4d
  2. 6p>5f>5p>4d
  3. 6p>5f>4d>5p
  4. 5f>6p>4d>5p

Solution

n+l values:

4d=4+2=6

5p=5+1=6

5f=5+3=8

6p=6+1=7

Sub-shell which has higher n+l value, has more energy.

If n+l is same for two sub-shells, then the one having more n value has more energy.

5f>6p>5p>4d
