Answer 1

Answer:

• The quantum number associated with the angular momentum of an atomic electron.

Arnold Sommerfeld posited the term azimuthal quantum number from the Bohr model of the atom. The Rutherford-Bohr model or Bohr model, depicts the atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons that travel in circular orbits around the nucleus – similar in structure to the solar system, but with attraction provided by electrostatic forces rather than gravity.

Azimuthal quantum number describes the shape of orbital. It is denoted by . Values of are from zero to n-1.

• For s-orbital, ℓ = 0

• For p-orbita, ℓ = 1

• For d-orbital, ℓ = 2

• For f-orbital, ℓ = 3

Answer 2

Answer:

The azimuthal quantum number is a quantum number for an atomic orbital that determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.
