Which of the following statements is false?
a. the n = 3 shell has no f subshell
b. there are three p orbitals in every shell of an atom except the n = 1 shell
c. all s orbitals have spherical shapes
d. each d subshell has five d orbitals
e. the energies of subshell in the shells (energy levels) of a hydrogen atom vary as s < p < d, etc.

The answer to your question is: letter E

Explanation:

A. This option is correct, the n = 3 shell only has subshells: s, p and d, and shell n = 4 or 5 have f subshell.

B. This option is true in subshell p could be at most 6 electrons and 3 suborbitals.

C. This option is correct orbital "s" is a sphere.

D. This option is correct, in subshell d could be at most 10 electrons and 5 orbitals.

E. This option is false, hydrogen only has 1 electron and then one subshell (s).
