Question

pls explain what makes wrong the following statements: 1. when n=2 l= can be 0,1,2 2. orbital where l=6 would be called m orbital 3. the quantum numbers n=3 l=2 describe one of the 3p 4. when n=2 l=can be -2,-1,0,+1 or +2 5. when l=2 ml= can be 2,3,4,5, or 6 pls explain what makes wrong the following statements: 1. when n=2 l= can be 0,1,2 2. orbital where l=6 would be called m orbital 3. the quantum numbers n=3 l=2 describe one of the 3p 4. when n=2 l=can be -2,-1,0,+1 or +2 5. when l=2 ml= can be 2,3,4,5, or 6

Explanation / Answer

The relation between quantum numbers is    For a given value of 'n'  the 'l' will have the followingvalues                l = (n-1), (n-2) , ..............,0 For each value of 'l' above 'm' will have thefollowing values                m = 2l + 1                    = -l      to     +l 's' has values +1/2 and -1/2 only. ................................................ 5. when l=2 ml= can be 2,3,4,5, or 6   is wrongbecause , for l = 2 , 'm ' must be any one of the vlaues+2,+1,0,-1,-2 5. when l=2 ml= can be 2,3,4,5, or 6   is wrongbecause , for l = 2 , 'm ' must be any one of the vlaues+2,+1,0,-1,-2 3. the quantum numbers n=3 l=2 describe one of the 3p iswrong because for 3p orbital 'l' must be 1 but not 2 1. when n=2 l= can be 0,1,2 is wrong because , for n = 2the 'l' must 1 or 0 but not 2 1. when n=2 l= can be 0,1,2 is wrong because , for n = 2the 'l' must 1 or 0 but not 2
