Question

What is maximum number of orbitals that can be identified with the following quantum number?

Answer 1

Answer:

For n=3,l=0,1,2 and for l=1,m=−1,0,+1 it suggest that it is 3p orbital and magnetic quantum no. suggest that it is 3p

z

.

So, for n=3,l=+1,m

l

=0 only 1 set is possible.

Maximum number of orbitals identified by the given quantum no. is only one i.e 3p

z

.

Answer 2

s...p....d....f....having azumuthal quantum no.s as 0..1...2..3...respectively
