Solution

The 'n + l' rule is used to determine the energy of an orbital in a multi-electron atom. The 'n' represents the principal quantum number, and 'l' represents the azimuthal quantum number.

For a 3p orbital:

  • 'n' is 3 (since it's the third energy level)
  • 'l' is 1 (since for a 'p' orbital, l = 1)

So, the 'n + l' value for a 3p orbital is 3 + 1 = 4.
