How many electrons are there in the 3rd principal energy level (n = 3) of a phosphorus Atom ?

Explanation / Answer

Solution :-

Q1) 3d orbital means n = 3 and l = 2

So the correct set of the quantum number is as shown in the option ‘E’

Q2) For the question 2 the set of the quantum which is not allowed is the set shown in the option ‘e’

Because when n= 3 then l cannot be 3 the values of the l depends on the n that l is 0 to (n-1) so when n = 3 then possible values of the l are 0,1 and

So the set ‘e’ is not allowed.

Q3 a) 3p orbital means n= 3 and p orbital means l = 1

So the correct set of the quantum numbers is shown in the option ‘D’

That is n=3 , l = 1 and ml = -1

Q3 b) ) Nitrogen have 7 electrons so its electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p3

So the correct orbital diagram is shown in the option ‘a’

Q4) In the given orbital diagram it shows electrons as [Ar] 4s2 3d10 4p5

Means it has total 18 + 2 + 10+5 = 35 electrons so the element with the 35 electrons is the Br

So it’s the Br element with given electronic configuration orbital diagram.
