What is orbital angular momentum of an electron in `3d` orbital.

A

`sqrt2((h)/(2pi))`

B

`sqrt3((h)/(2pi))`

C

`sqrt6((h)/(2pi))`

D

`sqrt(12)((h)/(2pi))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The angular momentum is given by
`L=sqrt(l(l+1))((h)/(2pi))`
For the electron in 3d orbital, l = 2.
`therefore" "L=sqrt(2(3))((h)/(2pi))=sqrt6((h)/(2pi))`
