For each of the following combinations of quantum numbers, make changes that produce an allowed combination. Count 3 for each change of n, 2 for each change of I, and 1 for each change of mi. What is the lowest possible count that you can obtain?
- a n = 3, I = 0, mi = −2
- b n = 5, I = 5, mi = 4
- c n = 3, I = 3, mi = −3
- d n = 5, I = 6, mi = 3
(a)

Interpretation:
From the given combinations of quantum number, the possible combination has to be given.
Concept introduction:
Principal Quantum Number (n): In an atom, the electron energy mainly depends on principal quantum number. The energy of an electron becomes lower when the value of n is smaller. The orbital size also depends on n. The size of orbital increases with increase in value of principal quantum number (n)
Angular Momentum Quantum Number (l): It helps to differentiate different shapes of orbitals for given n. For a given n, there are n different shapes of orbitals are present and are denoted as l. Angular momentum quantum number is also known as Azimuthal quantum number.
