sir. please tell me the difference between a shell, subshell and an orbital in an atom. Where are each one of them located inside an atom?

Expert Answer
Shell are the orbits which are located at fixed distance from the nucleus in which electrons revolve. This is determined by quantum number n.
Each shell is further subdivided into a number of subshells whcih have definite shapes. the number of subshells in each shell is determined by n. l = 0 to n-1
in each subshell there may be a number of regions located where the probability of finding an electron is highest. they are called orbitals. each orbital can have a max. of two electrons. they also have different subshells.
