Which one of the following electronic arrangements is absurd?

  1. A \(n=3, l=1, m=-1\)
  2. B \(n=3, l=0, m=0\)
  3. C \(n=2,l=0, m=-1\)
  4. D \(n=2, l=1, m=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(n=2,l=0, m=-1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The three quantum numbers \(n, l\) and \(m\) that describe an orbital has integer values of 0,1,2,3 and so on. The electronic arrangement of option (c) is absurd because \[ \begin{array}{l} n=2 \\ l=0 \\ m=0 \end{array} \] To sum up, where \(n=2, l=0, m=0\) Hence, for \(l=0,\)…
