Which of the following sets of quantum numbers is correct for an electron in 4f-orbtial ?

A

`n=4,l=3, m=+1,s=+1/2`

B

`n=4,l=4, m=-4,s=-1/2`

C

`n=4,l=3, m=+4,s=+1/2`

D

`n=3,l=2, m=-2,s=+1/2`

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

A

For 4f orbital electron, n = 4
l = 3 (Because 0, 1, 2, 3)
s, p, d, f
m = +3, +2, +1, 0, -1, -2,-3
s = +1/2.
