The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that the orbital angular momentum of all s electrons (1s, 2s, 3s, etc.) is the same. - The orbital angular momentum (L) is determined by the azimuthal quantum number (l). For s orbitals, l = 0. - Therefore, the orbital angular momentum for all s orbitals (1s, 2s, 3s, etc.) is indeed the same, which is L = 0. 2. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason states that orbital angular momentum depends on the orientation of orbitals. - Orbital angular momentum is influenced by the shape and orientation of the orbitals. The s orbitals are spherical and do not have a specific orientation in space. - Since the s orbitals are spherical (l = 0), they do not exhibit any angular momentum due to orientation. Thus, the statement that orbital angular momentum depends on orientation is true, but it does not apply to s orbitals. 3. **Evaluating the Relationship**: - Both the assertion and reason are true. - However, the reason does not correctly explain the assertion because the assertion is about the fact that all s orbitals have the same angular momentum (which is zero), while the reason discusses the dependence of angular momentum on orientation, which is not applicable to s orbitals. 4. **Conclusion**: - The assertion is true, and the reason is true, but the reason does not provide a correct explanation for the assertion. Therefore, the correct answer is that both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation for A. ### Final Answer: - Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but R is not the correct explanation for A.
