Correct Answer - C
Assertion is true but reason is false. The order 1s lt 2s =2p lt 3s = 3p = 3d lt …. Is true for the energy of an electron in a hydrogen atom and is solely determined by Principal quantum number. For multielectron system energy also depends on azimuthal quantum number. The stability of an electron in a multi-electron atom is the net result of the attraction between the electron and the nucleus and the repulsion between the electron and the rest of the electron present . Energies of different subshell (azimuthal quantum number) present within the same principal shell are found to be in order of s lt p lt d lt f
