The maximum number of sub-levels, orbitals and electrons in $N$ shell of an atom are respectively

The maximum number of sub-levels, orbitals and electrons in $N$ shell of an atom are respectively
  1. $4,12,32$
  2. $4,16,30$
  3. $4,16,32$
  4. $4,32,64$

Solution

For ' $N$ ' shell, $\because$ The number of shell $(n)=4$ $\therefore$ The number of sub-levels or sub-shell $(l)=4$ The number of orbitals $=n^2=4^2=16$ and the number of electrons $=2 n^2=2 \times 4^2=32$
