Question
The arrangement of orbitals on the basis of energy is based upon their (n + l) value. Lower the value of (n + l), lower is the energy. For orbitals having same values of (n + l), the orbital with lower value of n will have lower energy.
Based upon the above information, solve the questions given below:
Which of the following orbitals has the lowest energy?
5p, 5d, 5f, 6s, 6p

Solution
| Orbitals | n | n + l |
| 5p | 5 | 6 |
| 5d | 5 | 7 |
| 5f | 5 | 8 |
| 6s | 6 | 6 |
| 6p | 6 | 7 |
The highest energy orbital is 5f
