Azimuthal quantum number for p subshell is:
Correct answer: A. 1
- A. 1
- B. 3
- C. 0
- D. 2
Explanation
The Azimuthal quantum number describes the subshells and the magnitude of the orbital angular momentum. The value of the Azimuthal quantum numbers for each subshell is as follows:s = 0p = 1d = 2f = 3The formula to find the Azimuthal quantum number is l = (n-1).For example, for the first shell (n = 1) and the Azimuthal quantum number will be l = 0.

About Atomic Structure
Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
