(i) An atomic orbital has n = 3. What are the possible values of l and ml ?
(ii) List the quantum numbers (ml and l) of electrons for 3d orbital.
(iii) Which of the following orbitals are possible?
1p, 2s, 2p and 3f
(i) n = 3 (Given)
For a given value of n, l can have values from 0 to (n – 1).
∴ For n = 3
l = 0, 1, 2
For a given value of l, ml can have (2l 1) values.
For l = 0, m = 0
l = 1, m = – 1, 0, 1
l = 2, m = – 2, – 1, 0, 1, 2
∴ For n = 3
l = 0, 1, 2
m0 = 0
m1 = – 1, 0, 1
m2 = – 2, – 1, 0, 1, 2
(ii) For 3d orbital, l = 2.
For a given value of l, mlcan have (2l 1) values i.e., 5 values.
∴ For l = 2
m2 = – 2, – 1, 0, 1, 2
(iii) Among the given orbitals only 2s and 2p are possible. 1p and 3f cannot exist.
For p-orbital, l = 1.
For a given value of n, l can have values from zero to (n – 1).
∴ For l is equal to 1, the minimum value of n is 2.
Similarly,
For f-orbital, l = 4.
For l = 4, the minimum value of n is 5.
Hence, 1p and 3f do not exist.
