All of the orbitals in a given electron shell have the same value of the _ quantum number.
A) azimuthal
B) psi
C) magnetic
D) principal
E) spin

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The principal quantum number determines the energy level and size of the electron shell. All orbitals within a given shell have the same value of the principal quantum number. The other quantum numbers (azimuthal, magnetic, and spin) differentiate between the sublevels and orientation of orbitals within the same shell. The psi quantum number does not exist.
