Which set of three quantum numbers (n,l,m_l)corresponds to a 4s orbital? A)4,0,1 B)4,0,2 C)4,0,0 D)4,1,0 E)4,1,1

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The quantum numbers for a 4s orbital are n=4 (principal quantum number, indicating the energy level), l=0 (azimuthal quantum number, indicating the s orbital), and m_l=0 (magnetic quantum number, which can range from -l to +l, but for s orbitals where l=0, m_l must also be 0).
