    Maximum number of electrons in a shell with principal quantum number n is given by

    A)  \[n\]              

    B) \[2n\]

    C) \[{{n}^{2}}\]             

    D) \[2{{n}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     Maximum number of electrons in a shell will principal quantum number \[n\]is given by \[2{{n}^{2}}.\] for e.g., if \[\underset{(first\,shell)}{\mathop{n=1}}\,,\]number of \[{{e}^{-}}=2\times {{1}^{2}}\] = 2 electrons if   \[\underset{(second\,shell)}{\mathop{n=2}}\,,\]number of \[{{e}^{-}},=2\times {{2}^{2}}\] \[=8\]electrons
