Example 39. Write the following orbitals in terms of values of n and l
(1) 4s, (ii) 3d, (i) 5p, (iv) 4f​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. 4s n= 4 and l= 0
2. 3d n=3 and l= 2
3. 5p n=5 and l= 1
4. 4f n=4 and l= 3

Answer 2

The following orbitals in terms of values of n and l are:

(1) 4s

- Here 4 is the principal quantum no and s sub-shell means 0, so we have:

n = 4 and l = 0

(2) 3d

- Here 3 is the principal quantum no and d sub-shell means 2, so we have:

n = 3 and l = 2

(3) 5p

- Here 5 is the principal quantum no and p sub-shell means 1, so we have:

n = 5 and l = 1

(4) 4f

- Here 4 is the principal quantum no and f sub-shell means 3, so we have:

n = 4 and l = 3
