Structure of Atom question

2022 · 28 Jun · Shift 2 · Q2

JEE MainChemistryStructure of AtomMCQ+4 / −1
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?

Correct answer: C

  1. Check statement (A): Principal quantum number nnn
    The principal quantum number can take positive integer values: n = 1,2,3,05 So, (A) is correct.

  2. Check statement (B): Azimuthal quantum number lll
    For a given principal quantum number nnn, the allowed values of lll are: l=0,1,2,…,(n−1)l = 0,1,2,\dots,(n-1)l=0,1,2,…,(n−1) But the statement says: l=0,1,2,…,nl = 0,1,2,\dots,nl=0,1,2,…,n which is incorrect.
    So, (B) is wrong.

  3. Check statement (C): Magnetic quantum number mlm_lml​
    For a given lll, the magnetic quantum number can take values: ml=−l,−(l−1),…,0,…,+(l−1),+lm_l = -l, -(l-1), \dots, 0, \dots, +(l-1), +lml​=−l,−(l−1),…,0,…,+(l−1),+l Total number of values: 2l+12l+12l+1 So, (C) is correct.

  4. Check statement (D): Spin quantum number
    The two possible spin orientations of an electron are: ms=+12, −12m_s = +\frac{1}{2},\,-\frac{1}{2}ms​=+21​,−21​ So, (D) is correct.

  5. Check statement (E): Number of orbitals for l=5l=5l=5
    For a given lll, number of orbitals is: 2l+12l+12l+1 For l=5l=5l=5: 2(5)+1=112(5)+1 = 112(5)+1=11 not 999.
    So, (E) is wrong.

  6. Correct set of statements
    Correct statements are: (A),(C),(D)(A), (C), (D)(A),(C),(D)

  7. Match with options
    This corresponds to Option C.

  8. Comparison with stored answer
    Stored correct answer = C
    Derived answer = C
    Hence, they agree.
