    If\[n=3\], \[f=0\]and\[m=0\], then atomic number is:

    A) \[12,\,\,13\]                      

    B) \[13,\,\,14\]

    C) \[10,\,\,11\]                      

    D) \[11,\,\,12\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[n=3,\,\,l=0\]and \[m=0\] indicates \[n=3\to \]present in the third shell (\[M-\]shell) \[l=0\to \]present in the 3s sub shell (since for \[s,l=0\])  \[m=0\to \]resent in the 3s sub shell (may be\[3{{s}^{1}}\]or\[3{{s}^{2}}\])hence its electronic configuration \[1{{s}^{2}},\,\,2{{s}^{2}},\,\,2{{p}^{6}},\,\,3{{s}^{1\,\,or\,\,2}}\] \[\therefore \]the atomic number\[=11or12\]
