It is teming to think that all possible transituion are permissible and that an atomic spectrum series from the transition of an electron from any intial orbital to any other .However this is not so because a photon a photon has as intrinsic spin angular momentum of `sqrt(2) h// 2pi` corresponding to `S = 1` although it has no charge and no rest mass
On the other hand , an electron has got two typwe of agular momentum orbit angular momentum
`L = [sqrt(l(l+1))] h//2pi`,and spin angular momentum `L_(1) = sqrt(s(s + 1)) h//2pi` arising from orbital motion and spin motion of the electronn during any electton transition must compentum for the angular momentum carried away by the photon .To salary this condition the different between the azisition quantum number of teh orbital witjhin which the transition `(l = 2)` cannot make a transition into as x-orbital `(l = 0)`because the photon cannot carry away enough angular momentum
Electron transition from `4s` to `3s` orbital is forbiddeon meating that it cannot because

A

There will be no change in the orbital angular momentum of electron athough the emitted photon has angular momentum

B

There will be change in the orbital angular momentum whereas the emitte photon has to momentum

C

`Delta m_(1) `valuee between `4s`1 and `3s` is not zero , which is an important selection slection rule for allowed transition

D

In `4s` and `3s` orbitals the wavelength of the electeron wave `n = 5` is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

a. It does not involve any change in the value of l value of l should change by `+- 1`
b. There will be no change in angular momentum because photon have angular momentum
c. `Delta m` for `4s` and `3s` is zero
d. Wavelength of electron wave are not the same because n value is difference
