If n = 4 it will contain sub shells _.
Correct answer: D. s, p, d, f
- A. s
- B. p
- C. s, p, d
- D. s, p, d, f
Explanation
If n=4n = 4n=4, it will contain the subshells with the following quantum numbers:4s (with l=0l = 0l=0, the angular momentum quantum number)4p (with l=1l = 1l=1)4d (with l=2l = 2l=2)4f (with l=3l = 3l=3)These subshells correspond to the values of lll, which determine the type of orbital (s, p, d, or f) in the fourth energy level (n = 4).

About Atomic Structure
Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
