For sets of values of quantum numbers (n, l, m and s) are given below. Which of these does not provide a permissible solution of the wave equation?
Correct answer: B. 3,3,1,-1/2
- A. 3, 2, - 2, 1/2
- B. 3,3,1,-1/2
- C. 0,3,1,-1/2
- D. 3,1,1,-1/2
Explanation
n = l is not permissible.Value of l is always less than the value of n.

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.
