Question #04d04

1 Answer

2d and 3f does not exist

Explanation:

Principal quantum number n = 1, 2, 3, 4

Azimthual quantum number l =(n - 1) = 0 for s, 1 for p, 2 for d , 3 for f

Magnetic quantum number m = (-l, 0 + l)

For #n = 1# Magnetic quantum number #m# is #0 = 1s# orbital

For #n = 2# Magnetic quantum number #m# is #(-l, 0 + l) = 2p#

For #n = 3# Magnetic quantum number #m# is #(-2, -l, 0 + l, +2) = 3d#

for #n = 4# magnetic quantum number #m# is #(-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3) = 4f#

#2d# and #3f# do not exist
