Neha went to a 'sale' to purchase some pants and skirts. When her friend asked her how many of each she had bought, she answered "The number of skirts are two less than twice the number of pants purchased. Also the number of skirts is four less than four times the number or pants purchased." Help her friends to find how many pants and skirts Neha bought.

Raghava went to a 'sale' to purchase some pants and shirts. He purchased the number of shirts are 3 less than thrice the number of pants. Also the number of shirts is 5 less than four times number of pants purchased. Find how many pants and shirts Raghava bought.

The equation of Schroedinger for the hydrogen atom in the time-independet, non-relativistic form is a partial differential equation involving the position coordinates (x, y and z). The potential energy term for the proton-electron system is spherically symmetric of the form -1//4pi in_(0) xx (e^(2)//r) . THus it is advantages to change over from the cartesian coordinates (x,y and z) to the spherical polar coordinates, ( r, theta and phi ). In this form the equation become separable in the radial part involving r and the angular part involving theta and phi . The probability of locating the electron within a volume element d tau = 4pi r^(2)dr is then given |Psi|^(2)(4pir^(2)dr) , where Psi is a function of r, theta and phi . With proper conditions imposed on Psi , the treatment yields certain functions, Psi , known as atomic orbitals which are solutions of the equations. Each function Psi correspods to quantum number n, l and m, the principal, the azimuthal and the magnetic quantum number respectively, n has values 1, 2, 3,...., l has values 0, 1, 2, ....(n-1) for each value of n and m (n-1) for each value of n and m (m_(l)) has values =1, +(l+1),...1,0,-1,-2...-l i.e., (2l+1) values for each value of l. In addition a further quantum number called pin had to be introduced with values +-1//2 . Any set of four values for n, l , m and s characterizes a spin orbital. Pauli.s exclusion principle states that a given spin orbital can accomodate not more than electron. Further the values l = 0, l=1, l=2, l=3 are designated s,p,d and f orbitals respectively. How many spin orbitals are there corresponding to n = 3?
