Question

For the n = 3 electron shell, which of the following quantum numbers are valid? Check all that apply.

Answer 1

Answer:

The valid quantum numbers are l=0, l=-2 and l= 2.

Explanation:

Given that,

n = 3 electron shell

Suppose, the valid quantum numbers are

l = 3

m = 3

l = 0

m = –2

l = –1

m = 2

We know that,

The value of n = 3

Principle quantum number :

Then the principal quantum number is 3. Which is shows the M shell.

So, n = 3

Azimuthal quantum number :

The azimuthal quantum number is l.

$l=0,1,2$

Magnetic quantum number :

The magnetic quantum number is

$m=-2,-1,0,1,2$

Hence, The valid quantum numbers are l=0, l=-2 and l= 2.

Answer 2

Answer: I = 0  m = -2 m = 2

Explanation: Edge.

the correct answers to the second part of this are:

n = 1, I = 0, m = 0

n = 3, I = 0, m = 0

n = 5, I = 4, m = -3
