Question
ANSWER IN DETAIL
What is the maximum number of electrons that L shell can accommodate ? Give reasons for your answer.
Solution
The maximum possible number of electrons that a shell can accommodate can be given by the formula 2nr.
(Here n is the number of shell)
In case of L shell n = 2
∴ 2n2 = 2(2)2 = 8
Thus L shell can accommodate maximum number of 8 electrons.
