JEE MainChemistryStructure of AtomMCQ+4 / −1
For electrons in ' 2 s ' and ' 2 p ' orbitals, the orbital angular momentum values, respectively are :
- A0 and
- B0 and
- Cand 0
- Dand
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
- Use the formula for orbital angular momentum
For an electron in an orbital with azimuthal quantum number , the magnitude of orbital angular momentum is
- For the orbital
For an -orbital,
So,
Thus, for orbital, orbital angular momentum is
- For the orbital
For a -orbital,
So,
Thus, for orbital, orbital angular momentum is
- Match with the options
So the values for electrons in and orbitals, respectively, are:
This matches Option B.
- Comparison with stored correct answer
Stored correct answer = B
Our derived answer = B
Hence, they agree.
