    What is the maximum numbers of electrons that can be associated with the following set of quantum numbers? \[n=3,\,l=1\]And\[m=-1\]

    A)  10                

    B)  6

    C)  4                 

    D)  2

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     The orbital of the electron having \[n=3,l=1\]and=\[m=-1\] is \[3{{p}_{z}}\,(as\,n{{l}_{m}})\] and an orbital can have a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins. \[\therefore \] \[3{{p}_{z}}\] orbital contains only two electrons or only 2 electrons are associated with \[n=3,\] \[l=1,\,m=-1.\]
