The quantum mechanical model of the hydrogen atom requires that if the orbital quantum number = 5,there will be how many permitted orbital magnetic quantum numbers allowed?
A) 7
B) 15
C) 5
D) 11

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The magnetic quantum number (m) ranges from -l to +l, where l is the orbital quantum number. If l = 5, m can be -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, which gives 11 possible values.
