In the molecule p-chlorotoluene (image attatched of molecule), what does the p at the beginning represent?

para

Explanation:

Ortho (o), meta (m), and para (p) refer to the location of the chloride substitution compared to the methyl group on toluene (toluene is characterized by the methyl at the top).

There is one s orbital, and there are three p orbitals, five d orbitals, and seven f orbitals. thus, the answer is b. do not confuse the number of orbitals in a subshell with the number of electrons the subshell can hold. each orbital can hold two electrons, so the capacity of an nf subshell is 14 electrons.
