Question

Which of the following energy state is filled by an electron after the completion of 4p orbital?
  1. 5s
  2. 3d
  3. 4d
  4. 4f

A
5s
B
3d
C
4d
D
4f
Solution
Verified by Toppr

When 4p orbital in any atom are filled completely, the next electron goes in 5s(n+l=5+0=5) not in 4d(n+l=4+2=6),electron first enters into the subshell which is having less (n+l) value (energy). Hence the 5s is filled first than 4d.
