Question

not considering the electron spin, the degeneracy of the second excited state (n=3) of H atom is 9, while the degeneracy of the second excited state of Hminus is...

Answer 1

Hi there!!!


degeneracy means :- orbital with same value of." n " and " l "

According to question

first excited state means n = 2

so , Electron will transfer from 1s to 2s subshell and. 2s have only one orbital that can fill only two Electron so the degeneracy is " 1 "


hence your answer is " 1 " .


hope it helps !!

thanks !!
