thanks

Vocaloid:

5 orbitals, meaning this is a d-subshell with l = 2. it's incomplete which means we aren't dealing with any higher orbitals like f, g, etc. l can only take values up to (n-1) so if l = 2 then n = 3 (3rd energy level) |dw:1548130571759:dw|

eljaja:

Oh I get it I think. What about the location of the electron? how is that determined?

Vocaloid:

n = 3 means location would be the third energy level

eljaja:

Oh I see now. makes sense. thank you.
