Among the following, the INCORRECT statement is (A) No two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers (B) The maximum number of electrons in the shell with principal quantum number, n, is equal to n2 +2 (C) Electrons in an orbital must have opposite spin (D) In the ground state, atomic orbitals are filled in the order of their increasing energies 

Answer»

Correct option (B) The maximum number of electrons in the shell with principal quantum number, n, is equal to n2 +2

Explanation: 

The maximum number of e in the shell with principal quantum number n, is equal to 2n2 (not n2 + 2)
