Question

10.Give the possible values for the magnetic quantum number for each of the following orbitals (a) 4p: (b) 3d: (c) 2s (d) 5P

Answer 1

(a) 4p: ml = -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3

(b) 3d: ml = -2, -1, 0, +1, +2

(c) 2s: ml = -1, 0, +1

(d) 5p: ml = -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3, +4

Step-by-step explanation:

Manetic quantum numbers determine the spatial orientation and number of orbitals in the subshell. ml is from -l to +l.
