Quantum Numbers

Such a large topic. So many things that one could ask about it. And yet, it deals with such small particles. Does that even seem fair?

Question: Which of the following sets of quantum numbers are valid? If they are valid, state the possible orbitals that are described. If the quantum number set is invalid, what is incorrect in the set?

(a) {2,0,0,+1/2} (b) {3,1,-1,-1/2} (c) {2,2,1,+1/2} (d) {3,2,-3,-1/2}


Question: Which quantum number distinguishes between the s, p, d and f? The value for each?

Question: What is the orbitial significance of: m=+2,+1,0-1,-2 ?

These questions get posted, but where are the answers? If you, the reader, answers the questions, how will you know that you are correct? Will anyone ask and/or answer these last few questions? Well, anyone?

Tomorrow's possible topic: Heisenberg [At this typing, this blogger is uncertain. Ha ha :<]

Did you hear the one about the chemist was reading a book on helium and just couldn't put it down?
