Question:medium

What is the maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in a subshell with orbital angular momentum quantum number \(l = 3\)?

Show Hint

To quickly find subshell capacities, remember they increase in steps of 4 starting from 2: \(s=2\), \(p=6\), \(d=10\), \(f=14\). This is consistent with the formula \(2(2l+1)\).
