Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 14

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As there are 3 subshells, those will be \(s, p\) and \(d\) giving a total of \(=1 s^2, 2 s^2, 2 p^2, 3 s^2, 3 p^6, 3 d^{10}=28\) electrons and 1 electrons for each orbital with \(m_s\) \(=-1 / 2\) and \(+1 / 2\) each. Thus, there will be 14 such electrons. Hence, the correct…
