The kind of reaction involving the transfer of electrons or hydrogen away from a molecule is called oxidation.

In the same vein, the molecule that receives the electron or the hydrogen atom is said to be reduced. This means that oxidation cannot exist in isolation without reduction.

In other words, oxidation is defined as:

  • Loss of electrons
  • Loss of hydrogen atoms
  • Gain of oxygen atoms
  • Gain in oxidation number

While reduction is defined as:

  • Gain of electrons
  • Gain of hydrogen atom
  • Loss of oxygen atom
  • Reduction in oxidation number

2p is the correct representation for the sub-shell with n = 2 and l = 1.
boyakko [2]

Explanation:

Principle Quantum Numbers : It describes the size of the orbital and the energy level. It is represented by n. Where, n = 1,2,3,4....

Azimuthal Quantum Number : It describes the shape of the orbital. It is represented as 'l'. The value of l ranges from 0 to (n-1). For l = 0,1,2,3... the orbitals are s, p, d, f...

s = 1 orbital

p = 3 orbitals

d = 5 orbitals

f = 7 orbitals

For n = 4

l = 0 to (n-1) = 0 to 3 = (4s , 4p , 4d , 4f)

Number of subshells = 4

Number of orbitals =         1 + 3 + 5 + 7  = 16

The maximum number of electrons the n = 4 shell can contain:

Each orbital can holds upto two electrons, then 16 orbitals will have :

16\times 2=32

32 is the maximum number of electrons the n = 4 shell can contain
