Which of the following is a permissable set of quantum numbers for an electron in a hydrogen atom? The atom may be in an excited state (ie. the electron need not be in its ground state). a) n = 6, l = -5, ml = +4, ms = +1/2 b) n = 4, l = -2, ml = +2, ms = -1/2 c) n = 2, l = 2, ml = +1, ms = -1/2 d) n = 5, l = 1, ml = -1, ms = +1/2 e) n = 3, l = 2, ml = -2, ms = -1
In the quantum mechanical treatment of the hydrogen atom, which one of the following combinations of quantum numbers is not allowed? a) n=3, l=0, ml=0 b) n=3, l=1, ml= -1 c) n=3, l=2, ml= 2 d) n=3, l=2, ml= -1 e) n=3, l=3, ml=2
An electron is in a hydrogen atom with n = 2 and ℓ = 1. (a) Find all the possible angles between the orbital angular momentum vector and the z-axis. (b) Suppose the atom absorbs a photon and rises from the n = 2 and ℓ = 1 state to the n = 3 state. Using conversation of angular momentum, what are the possible values of the final value of ℓ in the n = 3 state?
