Which of the following subshells is correctly designated?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The subshell notation includes the principal quantum number (n) and the letter designation for the subshell (s, p, d, or f), followed by the superscript indicating the number of electrons in that subshell. The correct notation for a full p subshell is 2p6, indicating that it is the second energy level and there are six electrons in the p subshell. The other options are not correct because they violate the rules of electron configuration, such as having too many electrons in a subshell or using a letter designation that does not match the principal quantum number.
