The orbitals can be distinguished by their Size, shape and orientation
- Orbitals are distinguished on the basis of their size, shape and orientation. The principal quantum number determines the size, azimuthal quantum number defines the shape and magnetic quantum number determines the orientation of orbital. Hence, the last option is correct.
- Size is determined by principal quantum number . It is denoted as 'n'. As the 'n' increases size of orbital also increases.
- The three dimensional shape is determined by the azimuthal quantum number. Since shells contain one or more sub-shells, these sub-shells correspond to value of 'l'.
- The spatial orientation is determined by the magnetic quantum number. It's value is determined by 2l+1. Letter 'm' is used to denote it.
