Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The set of quantum numbers for an electron consists of four values: principal quantum number (n), azimuthal quantum number (l), magnetic quantum number (ml), and spin quantum number (ms). Choice B includes symbols for all four quantum numbers, while the other choices do not. Choice A includes random symbols that do not represent quantum numbers. Choice C only includes letters used to represent the different subshells of the atom. Choice D includes symbols for different wave functions, not quantum numbers. Choice E includes some quantum numbers but also includes random symbols such as "p" and "n" that do not represent quantum numbers.
