Question

An atomic orbital has n=4. What are the possible values for l m1 and ms

Answer 1

Answer:

For n = 4, l can have values of 0, 1, 2, and 3. Thus, s, p, d, and f subshells are found in the n = 4 shell of an atom. For l = 0 (the s subshell), ml can only be 0. ... For l = 1 (p-type orbitals), m can have values of –1, 0, +1, so we find three 4p orbitals.
