What is the maximum number of electrons that can be identified with the following set of quantum numbers? If there are none, enter 0.

n = 6, = 1, m = –1

What is the maximum number of electrons that can be identified with the following set of quantum numbers? If there are none, enter 0.

n = 3

What is the maximum number of electrons that can be identified with the following set of quantum numbers? If there are none, enter 0.

n = 3, = 3

Explanation / Answer

a) n=3 can only hold l = 0, 1, and 2, so in this one the maximum number will be 0

b) for n=3 and ml = 1, there are two orbitals which have n=3 and ml=1 , and one orbital can hold up to 2 electrons, so the maximum it can hold is four.

c) for n= 6, ml = -1 and l = 1, this is only one specific orbital, which means it can hold up to 2 electrons.

d) n = 3 can hold up to 18 electrons.
