Q. How many orbitals are possible when n = 3?

जब n = 3 हो तो कितने कक्षक संभव हैं?

For principal quantum number $n = 3$ , the possible values of azimuthal quantum number $l = 0, 1, 2$ corresponding to s, p, and d subshells.

Number of orbitals:
For l=0 (3s): 1 orbital
For l=1 (3p): 3 orbitals
For l=2 (3d): 5 orbital
Total = 1 + 3 + 5 = 9 orbitals
