AI Generated Solution

To determine which sets of quantum numbers are correct, we need to understand the rules governing the quantum numbers: 1. **Principal Quantum Number (n)**: This number can take any positive integer value (n = 1, 2, 3, ...). It represents the energy level of an electron in an atom. 2. **Azimuthal Quantum Number (l)**: This number can take integer values from 0 to (n-1). It represents the subshell and the shape of the orbital. For example, if n = 2, then l can be 0 or 1. 3. **Magnetic Quantum Number (m)**: This number can take integer values ranging from -l to +l, including zero. It represents the orientation of the orbital in space. ...
