The set of quantum numbers not possible to an electron is

L = sqrt(l(l+1)) (h)/(2pi) On the other hand, m determines Z-component of orbital angular momentum as L_(z) = m ((h)/(2pi)) Hund's rule states that in degenerate orbitals electron s do not pair up unless and until each such orbital has got an electron with parallel spins. Besides orbital motion, an electron also possess spin-motion. spin may be clockwise and anti-clockwise. Both thes spin motions are called two spin states of electron characterised by spin. s = +(1)/(2) and s =- (1)/(2) , respectively. The orbital angular momentum of electron (l =1) makes an angle of 45^(@) from Z-axis. The L_(z) of electron will be
