Answer:

Option E is correction. None of the above.

Explanation:

    ( 1 ) A 3p orbital has more energy than 2p orbital and this is the reason it is away from the nucleus as compare to 2p orbital. Energy of the shells increases as their distance increases from the nucleus.

    (2) p subshells are made up of three dumbbell-shaped orbitals

    (3) There are three atomic orbitals in a p subshell. They are px, py, and pz.
