-orbitals are arranged in the order of icnreasing energy. The correct option is
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
The order of energy of orbitals can be calculated from 
rule.
The lower the value of 
for an orbital, lower is its energy. If two orbitals have same ( 
) value than the orbital with lower value of 
has the lower energy.
Hence, the order of increasing energy will be 
.
