(a)
Interpretation : The maximum number of electrons in the given orbitals needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction : An atom consists of three sub-particles electrons, protons and neutrons. Out of these three protons and neutrons are placed at the centre of atom called as nucleus. Whereas electrons are placed in certain energy levels called as shell.
A sublevel in orbital can maximum hold two electrons with opposite spins.
(b)
Interpretation : The maximum number of electrons in the given sublevel needs to be determined.
