Question
4p, 4d, 5s and 5p orbitals are arranged in the order of decreasing energy. The CORRECT option is:
Options
4d > 5p > 5s > 4p
5p > 5s > 4d > 4p
5p > 4d > 5s > 4p
5p > 4d > 4p > 5s
MCQ
Solution
5p > 4d > 4p > 5s
Explanation:
The bigger the value of (n + 1), the more energy there is. The greater the value of 'n' for the same value of (n + 1), the greater the energy.
