Correct answer: D

We match each statement in Column I with the relevant quantum numbers from Column II.

Column II:

  • (P)(P)(P) Principal quantum number nnn
  • (Q)(Q)(Q) Azimuthal quantum number lll
  • (R)(R)(R) Magnetic quantum number mlm_lml​
  • (S)(S)(S) Spin quantum number msm_sms​

1. (A) Orbital angular momentum of the electron in a hydrogen-like atomic orbital

The magnitude of orbital angular momentum is L=l(l+1) h2πL = \sqrt{l(l+1)}\,\frac{h}{2\pi}L=l(l+1)​2πh​ So it depends only on the azimuthal quantum number lll.

However, among the given options, all choices include both q,rq,rq,r or something else; in standard matching for an orbital, the angular momentum vector specification is associated with:

  • lll determining magnitude
  • mlm_lml​ determining its orientation

So the intended match is: (A)→(Q,R)(A) \to (Q,R)(A)→(Q,R)


2. (B) A hydrogen-like one-electron wave function obeying Pauli's principle

A complete one-electron state is specified by four quantum numbers: n,  l,  ml,  msn,\; l,\; m_l,\; m_sn,l,ml​,ms​ Pauli's principle applies to the complete set of these quantum numbers.

Hence, (B)→(P,Q,R,S)(B) \to (P,Q,R,S)(B)→(P,Q,R,S)


3. (C) Shape, size and orientation of hydrogen-like atomic orbitals

For an atomic orbital:

  • size depends mainly on nnn
  • shape depends on lll
  • orientation depends on mlm_lml​

Therefore, (C)→(P,Q,R)(C) \to (P,Q,R)(C)→(P,Q,R)


4. (D) Probability density of electron at the nucleus in hydrogen-like atom

Probability density at nucleus depends on whether the orbital has nonzero value at r=0r=0r=0. For hydrogen-like orbitals, only sss-orbitals have nonzero electron density at nucleus, so this depends on:

  • nnn
  • lll

It does not depend on mlm_lml​ or spin msm_sms​.

Thus, (D)→(P,Q)(D) \to (P,Q)(D)→(P,Q)


5. Compare with options

We obtained:

  • (A)→q,r(A) \to q,r(A)→q,r
  • (B)→p,q,r,s(B) \to p,q,r,s(B)→p,q,r,s
  • (C)→p,q,r(C) \to p,q,r(C)→p,q,r
  • (D)→p,q(D) \to p,q(D)→p,q

This matches Option D.
