how many electrons can the d sublevel hold? 14 10 6 2

Question

Accepted Answer

# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall electron - holding capacity formula
The formula for the number of electrons a sub - level can hold is $2(2l + 1)$, where $l$ is the azimuthal quantum number. For the $d$ sub - level, $l = 2$.
## Step2: Substitute $l = 2$ into the formula
$$
\begin{align*}
2(2l+1)&=2(2\times2 + 1)\
&=2(4 + 1)\
&=2\times5\
&=10
\end{align*}
$$
