QUESTION
(a) What is the minimum value of l for a subshell that contains 15 electrons?
(b) If this subshell is in the n=5 shell, what is the spectroscopic notation for this atom?
Answer
A
...
B
...
l = 0 (s-subshell) can take maximum 2 electrons
l = 1 (p-subshell) can take maximum 6 electrons
l = 2 (d-subshell) can take maximum 10 electrons
l = 3 (f-subshell) can take maximum 14 electrons
l = 4 (g-subshell) can take maximum 18 electrons
l = 5 (h-subshell) can take maximum 22 electrons
...
Since I = 4, it is in the g- subshell
spectroscopic notation: 5g15( n = 5, l = 4)
