Which of the following statements are correct for an electron that has n = 4 and m = -2?

A

The electron may be in a p-orbital.

B

The electron is in the fourth principal electronic shell.

C

The electron may be in a d-orbital.

D

The electron must have the spin quantum number = -1/2.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

n = 4, m = -2 does not correspond to p-orbital (because for p-orbital, m = -1 , 0, + 1)`, but it can represent d or/orbital.
