Question

Explain what each quantum number in a quantum number set tells you about the electron. Compare and contrast the locations and properties of two electrons within an atom that have the quantum number sets (3, 2, -1, +½) and (3, 1, -1, +½).

Answer 1

n= principle atomic number (energy level)
l = angular momentum
m1 = magnetic moment
m2 = spin

Answer 2

so both n=3 that indicates 3rd row
l=2 is p orbital
l=3 is d orbital
+ and - spins.. means parallel spins even though they're in different orbital

Answer 3

l=1 is p orbital
l=2 is d orbital
l=3 is f orbital

Answer 4

oh yeah, my bad, 0 is s duh

Answer 5

So, for these electrons everything is the same except the orbital, so there is no violation of the exclusion principle.
