JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2022 - 28th June Evening Shift - No. 2)

Consider the following statements :

(A) The principal quantum number 'n' is a positive integer with values of 'n' = 1, 2, 3, ...

(B) The azimuthal quantum number 'l' for a given 'n' (principal quantum number) can have values as 'l' = 0, 1, 2, ...... n

(C) Magnetic orbital quantum number 'ml' for a particular 'l' (azimuthal quantum number) has (2l + 1) values.

(D) $$\pm$$ 1/2 are the two possible orientations of electron spin.

(E) For l = 5, there will be a total of 9 orbital

Which of the above statements are correct?

(A), (B) and (C)
(A), (C), (D) and (E)
(A), (C) and (D)
(A), (B), (C) and (D)

Explanation

(A) Principle quantum number n is a positive integer and it's possible values are n = 1, 2, 3 ........

$$\therefore$$ A is correct.

(B) Azimuthal quantum number 'l' for a given 'n' can have values as l = 0, 1, 2 ....... (n $$-$$ 1)

$$\therefore$$ Statement B is wrong.

(C) Magnetic orbital quantum number ml for particular l has values from $$-$$ l to + 1 including zero means 2l + 1 values.

$$\therefore$$ Statement C is correct.

(D) $$ \pm \,\,{1 \over 2}$$ are the two possible orientation of electron spin.

$$\therefore$$ Statement D is correct.

(E) For l = 5, there will be a total of 11 orbitals.

$$l$$ = 0 $$\Rightarrow$$ 5 subshell

$$l$$ = 1 $$\Rightarrow$$ p subshell

$$l$$ = 2 $$\Rightarrow$$ d subshell

$$l$$ = 3 $$\Rightarrow$$ f subshell

$$l$$ = 4 $$\Rightarrow$$ g subshell

$$l$$ = 5 $$\Rightarrow$$ h subshell

We know,

Number of orbital in any subshell = 2$$l$$ + 1.

$$\therefore$$ For h subshell, number of orbitals = 2 $$\times$$ 5 + 1 = 11
