Find the number of orbitals and maximum electrons respectively present in M-shell?

Find the number of orbitals and maximum electrons respectively present in M-shell?
  1. 4,8
  2. 9,18
  3. 16,32
  4. 1,2

Solution

Shell (n) Sub-shells \((l)\) Orbitals \((m)\)
\(\begin{aligned}
& 30(3 s) 0=1 \\
& 1(3 p)-1,0,+1=3 \\
& 2(3 d)-2,-1,0,+1,+2=5
\end{aligned}\)
Total \(=9\)
