Consider the following sets of quantum number
n | l | |||
(i) | 3 | 0 | 0 | |
(ii) | 2 | 2 | 1 | |
(iii) | 4 | 3 | -2 | |
(iv) | 1 | 0 | -1 | |
(v) | 3 | 2 | 3 |
Which of the following sets of quantum number is not possible?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
(ii), (iv), and (v) are not possible
(ii) | n=2 | s=+1/2 | l equal to n is not possible | ||
(iv) | n=1 | m= -1 | Not possible (because m=-1 is not for l=0) | ||
(v) | n=3 | s= +1/2 | Not possible because m=3 is not for l=2 |
