Why is the following situation impossible? An experiment is performed on an atom. Measurements of the atom when it is in a particular excited state show five possible values of the z component of orbital angular momentum, ranging between 3.16 x 10-34 kg ⋅ m2/s and -3.16 x 10-34 kg ⋅ m2/s.
The electron in a certain hydrogen atom has an angular momentum of 2.583×10−34 J.s. What is the largest possible magnitude for the
z-component of the angular momentum of this electron?
