The orbital angular momentum of a p-electron is given as :

Options

A. `(h)/(sqrt(2)pi)`
B. `sqrt(3)(h)/(2 pi)`
C. `sqrt((3)/(2))(h)/(pi)`
D. `sqrt(6)(h)/(2pi)`.

Answer

A

Explanation

The orbital angular momentum (m)
`=sqrt(l(l+1))(h)/(2 pi)`
For p-electrons, l=1
`:. M=sqrt(l(1+1))=(h)/(2pi)=sqrt(2)(h)/(2 pi)=(h)/(2pi)=(h)/(sqrt(2)pi)`
