Indicate the correct order of sub shell w.r.t penetration power.
Correct answer: A. s>p>d>f
- A. s>p>d>f
- B. f>d>p>s
- C. p>s>f>d
- D. d>f>s>p
Explanation
Smaller the size of sub-shell and lower the enrgy level, higher will be the penetration power.

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.
