Question

sapling learning The principal quantum number, n, describes the energy level of a particular orbital as a function of the distance from the center of the nucleus. Additional quantum numbers exist to quantify the other characteristics of the electron. The angular momentum quantum number (E), the magnetic quantum number (m), and the spin quantum number (ms) have strict rules which govern the possible values. Identify allowable combinations of quantum numbers for an electron. Select all that apply. n=4, 1-3,m=4, ms=-1/2 n=1,1= 1,m,= 0, ms=-1/2 ns 5, f= 4, m,--4, ms-+1/2 n-2, f= 1,m,--1, m,--1

Explanation / Answer

6 is only option correct

L should not be -ve

ml value should not be greater then L

for n =1 L can not be 1

fouth value will g orbital but so far we dont have

ms should be either +1/2 or or -1/2 should not -1

last opton is suitable for 3S orbital

second one

for iS electrons option 2 and option 7 will be matching

for 1S n = 1, l =0, ml = 0 ms will be different for both it will be +1/2 and -1/2

for 2S electron

option 3 and option 5 is matching

or 2S n = 2, l =0, ml = 0 ms will be different for both it will be +1/2 and -1/2
