Consider the quantum numbers n = 4 and l = 2. Which of the following statements are correct regarding these quantum numbers? More than one may be correct: corresponds to a p-orbital can hold up to 4 electrons ml can only equal -1, 0, +1 has 5 orbitals ms can only equal ± 1/2 an electron with these quantum numbers could have an electron configuration of [Kr] 5s2 4d3 an electron at these quantum numbers has more energy than an electron at n = 5, l = 0 when the last electron in the ground state has these quantum numbers, the atom is between Scandium and Zinc on the Period
