Step 1. Neutrons. The chapter credits James Chadwick (1932) with discovering the neutron, so a pairs with iv.

Step 2. p-orbital. A p SUBSHELL has three degenerate orbitals, and since Pauli's principle allows 2 electrons per orbital, the p subshell as a whole holds a maximum of 3×2=63\times2=6 electrons — so b pairs with i. (Note: a single p orbital, like any orbital, holds at most 2 electrons; 'six electrons' refers to the full p subshell's capacity, the sense intended here.) …
