Question 111 - There are 6 spin orbitals in p subshell in a ground state carbon atom. Only 2 electrons fill the p subshell. Number of different ways for n electrons to occupy the k spin orbitals are k! / [ (n!) (k-n)! ]. Find the number of different configurations of electrons to occupy the p subshell in a carbon atom.

Answer Posted / kangchuentat

Answer 111 - Let k = 6, n = 2. Number of ways = k! / [ (n!) (k-n)! ] = 6! / [ (2!) (6-2)! ] = 6! / (2! 4!) = 15. The answer is given by Kang Chuen Tat; PO Box 6263, Dandenong, Victoria VIC 3175, Australia; SMS +61405421706; chuentat@hotmail.com; http://kangchuentat.wordpress.com.
