Respuesta :

There will be 32 electrons in the n=4 shell.

Answer: The number of electrons in n = 4 energy level will be 32.

Explanation:

The total number of electrons that are contained in any energy level is calculated by using the formula of [tex]2n^2[/tex] where n = principle quantum number = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ...

We are given:

Principle quantum number of the value, n = 4

Putting this in above equation, we get:

[tex]\Rightarrow 2(4)^2=32\text{ electrons}[/tex]

Hence, the number of electrons in n = 4 energy level will be 32.
