The electronic, identified by quantum numbers n and l, (i) `n = 4, l = 1`, (ii) `n = 4, l = 0`, (iii) `n = 3,l = 2`, (iv) `n = 3, l = 1` can be placed in order of increasing energy, from the lowest to highest, as

Options

A. `(iv) lt (ii) lt (iii) lt (i)`
B. `(ii) lt (iv) lt (i) lt (iii)`
C. `(i) lt (iii) lt (ii) lt (iv)`
D. `(iii) lt (i) lt (iv) lt (ii)`

Answer

A

Explanation

Higher the value of (n +1) , the higher is the energy When (n+1) value is the same see value of n.

`therefore (iv) lt (ii) lt (iii) lt (i)`
