Answers to Quantum Number Questions
- (a) (n=3): Valid; quantum number (n) defines the shell and is an integer >0.
- (b) (n=3), (l=2): Valid; (l=2) corresponds to a d orbital ((0 \leq l < n)).
- (c) (n=4), (l=1), (m_l=-1), (m_s=): Invalid; (m_s) must be (+\frac{1}{2}) or (-\frac{1}{2}).
- (d) (n=5), (l=0), (m_l=-1), (m_s=+\frac{1}{2}): Invalid; (m_l) must be 0 when (l=0).
