What is the maxium number of electrons in sublevel f?

Answer 1

It depends on which subshell you're speaking of.. remember the the Lewis Structures?

Well the 1st subshell will have 2 electrons

2nd Subshell : 8 e-

3rd : 18 e-

4th : 32 e-

Above that I've never had to do any structures with more than 4 subshells and even those are VERY rare and I'm doing Uni chem.

Hope this helps a bit.

peace

Answer 2

To answer your question, there are a maximum of ten electrons in the third sub level. Assuming that you are referring to the second quantum number in the series n, l m and s. Where l is the azimuthal quantum number which has values 0, 1, ... (n-1). This is the one sometimes called the subshell. the values of l; 0, 1, 2, 3 are labelled s, p, d, f . The third is l=2 (d orbital). The d subshell (l=2) contains 5 orbitals with values of m, -2, -1, 0 +1, +2 each od which can hold two electrons with different s values.

Each sublevel can contain up to a specific amount of electrons. s can hold 2 electrons. p can hold 6 electrons. d can hold 10 electrons. f can hold 14 electrons. 2, 6, 10, 14 forms the pattern 4n-2 where n is the number of your sublevel.

Answer 3

The maximum number of electrons in a sublevel f is 14.

Answer 4

there is a maximum of 6 electrons in the 'p' sublevel there is a maximum of 6 electrons in the 'p' sublevel

Answer 5

The S sublevel may hold 2 electrons, P sublevel may hold 6, D can hold 10, and F can hold 14. (There are a few more, but they're irrelevant).

Answer 6

The maximum number of electrons in sublevel f is 14 (7 orbitals, each with 2 electrons).
