Which of the following is false?
a.The energy of an electron in an orbital of a hydrogen-like species depends only on the principle quantum number n.
b. The angular momentum of electron in an orbital of a multielectron atom depends on the quantum number l and m
c. The experimental value of angular momentum of an orbital is given as `sqrt(l(l - 1)) ((h)/(2pi))`
d. The z-component of angular momentum of an electron in an orbital is given as `m ((h)/(12pi))`

Options

A. The energy of an electron in an orbital of a hydrogen like species depends only on the principle quantum number `n`.
B. The angular momentum of an electron in an orbital of a multielectron atom depends on the quantum numbers `l` and `m`.
