For the principal quantum number n=3, how many possible values are there for the angular momentum quantum number (l)?

OpenStudy (lovelyharmonics):

the interweb tells me the answer is 7 but 7 isnt one of my answers .-. 2 3 6 8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

7 is the number of possible values of magnetic quantum number \(m\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

angular momentum quantum number \(l\) ranges between 0 and n-1 for n = 3, \(l = 0, 1, 2\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

count them ^

OpenStudy (lovelyharmonics):

3

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats right ! so number of possible values for \(l\) is 3
