Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(C) A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
The principal quantum number \(n\) represents the shell, and the azimuthal quantum number \(l\) represents the subshell.
For \(l=0\), the subshell is \(s\).
For \(l = 1\), the subshell is \(p\).
For \(l=2\), the subshell is \(d\).
For \(l = 3\), the subshell is \(f\).
A. \(n=2, l=1\) corresponds to the \(2 p\) orbital. \( (A \rightarrow II\) )
B. \(n=4, l=0\) corresponds to the \(4 s\) orbital. \( (B \rightarrow III\) )
C. \(n=5, l=3\) corresponds to the \(5 f\) orbital. \( (C \rightarrow IV\) )
D. \(n=3, l=2\) corresponds to the \(3 d\) orbital. \( (D \rightarrow I\) )
The correct matching is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I.
