Ques. 1JEE Main 2024, 27 January (Morning Shift)
The number of electrons present in all the completely filled subshells having n = 4 and s = + 12 is . (Where n = principal quantum number and s = spin quantum number)
Answer
16
Solution
n = 4 ⇒ subshells 4s, 4p, 4d, 4f (completely filled)
∵ each filled orbital has one electron with s = + 12 ⇒ count = number of orbitals
4s : 1, 4p : 3, 4d : 5, 4f : 7
∴ Total = 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 = 16 (= n2)
Answer: 16
