हिन्दीAccording to the \( (n + l) \) rule, which of the following subshell pairs has the lower energy and gets filled first?
Correct answer · Option 4
3d (\( n+l = 5 \)) and 4s (\( n+l = 4 \))
Explanation
Subshell with lower \( (n+l) \) value has lower energy. For 4s, \( n+l = 4+0 = 4 \); for 3d, \( n+l = 3+2 = 5 \). Hence 1s fills before 3d.
