Capacities of shells and sub-shells. As the first electron shell contains only one subshell (the s subshell) and this contains only one orbital (which can hold a maximum of 2 electrons), the total number of electrons that the first shell can hold is 2.

The formula is 2n^2. it depends on the value of principal quantum number and ranges from 2,8,18 ans so on for k,l,m,n
s p d f also has 2, 6,10, 14
s p d f also has 2, 6,10, 14

It's false, because this formula is 2*n^2.
As the first orbital capacity is 2 and the rest are increasing as n= 1, 2, 3.
As the first orbital capacity is 2 and the rest are increasing as n= 1, 2, 3.

As per s, p, d, f orbital configuration s can have maximum 2 electrons, p = 6, d = 10 and f = 14.

Any orbital can accommodate maximum of 2 electron either it belong to s p d f sub shell.

So maximum should be 14. But in the test its showing answer as 2. Why?

Its answer should be 14 as in s p d and f orbital, there are max. 14.

That Maximum orbitals is 14 in Explanation but answer shows 2.

Why 2 is the maximum capability of orbit?
It is wrong.
It is wrong.
