What is the maximum number of electrons in the shells of an atom that has these quantum numbers?

A) n=6

B) n=3 and me = 4

c) n = 7, e=5

d) n=4, e=0

What is the maximum number of electrons in the shells of an atom that has these quantum numbers?
A) maximum is 86 total electrons (look at Radon) for period 6. Within just period 6, you have 32 electrons.



B) n = 3 maxes out at 18 electrons total. IF me designates the magnetic quantum number, then you can have up to 9 g-type orbitals, again max is 18



C) n = 7 max total electrons is 118. if you only want the number that are in 7, then 32 is correct.



D) n = 4 has 36 max total electrons. If you only want the first subshell (the s shell) it takes max of 2.
