When the azimuthal quantum number has the value `2`, the number of orbitals possible is

A

3

B

0

C

7

D

5

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Total values of m =(2l+1)= no. of orbitals in subshell.
Where m=Magnetic quantum no.
l=Azimuthal quantum no.
where l=2 represents 'd' subshell and d-subshell have five orbitals `(d_"xy",d_"yz",d_"zx", d_(x^2-y^2), d_z^2)`
