Explain, giving reasons which of the following sets of quantum numbers are not possible:(a) n = 0, l = 0, m1 = 0, ms = +1/2(b) n = 1, l = 0, m1 = 0, ms = -1/2(c) n = 1, l = 1, m1 = 0, ms = +1/2(d) n = 2, l = 1, m1 = 0, ms = -1/2(e) n = 3, l = 3, m1 = -3, ms = +1/2(f) n = 3, l = 1, m1 = 0, ms = +1/2 |

Answer» (a) The set, n = 0, l = 0, m1 = 0 and ms = +1/2 is not possible. This is because the quantum number n cannot have zero value. (b) This set is possible (c) This set is possible (d) This set is possible (e) This set is not possible because l cannot have a value equal to that of the n. The value of m1, based on the wrong value of l is also not correct. (f) This set is possible. |
