Question

What is the maximum numbers of electrons that can be associated with the following set of quantum numbers ? n = 3, l = 1 and m = –1
a) 4
b) 6
c) 2
d) = 10

Answer 1

Answer ⇒ 2 ⇒ Correct option (c)

Here , 2 is the maximum numbers of electrons that by which it can associated with the given set of quantum numbers  n = 3, l = 1 and m = –1.

Reason / Explanation :-

 The given set of distribution is ⇒ 3,1,-1,1/2 and 3,1,-1,-1/2
 This orbital is having $3p_{z}$ 

So by Pauli's exclusive principle,  two electrons of each π  having spin
 = +1/2 and -1/2.

so in result the orbital have maximum of two electrons with opposite spins.


Hope it Helps :-)
