How many orbitals are allowed in a subshell if the angular momentum quantum number for electrons in that subshell is 3?

7 orbitals are allowed in a sub shell if the angular momentum quantum number for electrons in that sub shell is 3.

Explanation:

We that different values of m for a given l provide the total number of ways in which a given s, p, d and f sub shells in presence of magnetic field can be arranged in space along x, y, z - axis or total number of orbitals into which a given subshell can be divided.

Range for given l lies between - l to + l.

The possible values of m are - 3, - 2, - 1, 0, 1,2, 3.

Total number of orbitals are 7.
