Question 34

Multiple Choice

What is a possible set of quantum numbers for an unpaired electron in the orbital box diagram below? $What is a possible set of quantum numbers for an unpaired electron in the orbital box diagram below? A) n = 1, \ell = 1, m _ { \ell } = -1, ms = +1/2 B) n = 4, \ell = 2, m _ { \ell } = -1, ms = -1/2 C) n = 5, \ell = 2, m _ { \ell } = -2, ms = +1/2 D) n = 5, \ell = 0, m _ { \ell } = 0, ms = -1/2 E) n = 5, \ell = 1, m _ { \ell } = -1, ms = +1/2$

A) n = 1, $\ell$ = 1, $m _ { \ell }$ = -1, m_s = +1/2
B) n = 4, $\ell$ = 2, $m _ { \ell }$ = -1, m_s = -1/2
C) n = 5, $\ell$ = 2, $m _ { \ell }$ = -2, m_s = +1/2
D) n = 5, $\ell$ = 0, $m _ { \ell }$ = 0, m_s = -1/2
E) n = 5, $\ell$ = 1, $m _ { \ell }$ = -1, m_s = +1/2
