Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: The orbitals having same energy are called as degenerate orbitals.
Statement-II: In hydrogen atom, 3 p and 
orbitals are not degenerate orbitals.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
For single electron species the energy depends upon principal quantum number ' 
' only. So, statement II is false.
Statement I is correct definition of degenerate orbitals.
