In a multi-electron atom, which of the following orbitals described by the three quantum numbers will have the same energy in the absence of magnetic and electric fields?
As we learnt in
Principal Quantum Number (n) -
It is a positive integer with value of n = 1,2,3.......
-
Azimuthal Quantum Number(l) -
For a given value of n, l can have n values ranging from 0 to n – 1, that is, for a given value of n, the possible value of l are : l = 0, 1, 2, ....( n –1)
-
Magnetic Quantum Number (m) -
For any sub-shell (defined by ‘l ’value) values of m are possible and these values are given by :
m = – l , – ( l –1), – ( l – 2)... 0,1... ( l – 2), ( l –1),l
-
Orbitals having same value in the absence of electric and magnetic field will have same energy.
In the given problem the n+l value is same for
