How many different values of m_l are possible for a 4d set of orbitals?

Select a correct set of values for an electron found within the designated 5d orbital. 

Which of the following statements is false?

a) A set of d orbitals contains 5 orbitals.

b) A set of 4s orbitals would have more energy than a set of 3p orbitals.

c) The second shell of an atom possesses d orbitals.

d) A set of f orbitals contains 3 orbitals.

e) The first energy level contains only s orbitals.

What are the possible values of m_ℓ for an electron in a d orbital?

Suppose that, in an alternate universe, the possible values of ml were the integer values including 0 ranging from −l−1 to l+1 (instead of simply −l to +l). how many orbitals would exist in each of the following sublevels?

What are the possible values of m_ℓ for an electron in a d orbital?

Type in the maximum number of electrons that can be present in each shell or subshell below.

One of the 2p orbitals with phases is shown in the figure.

a. Which 2p orbital is it?

b. Which of the statements about the orbital is or are true?

i. The two lobes are equal in size but opposite in sign.

ii. The probability of finding an electron is positive in one direction and negative in the opposite direction.

iii. The phase information for the orbital is lost when the wave function is squared. [Section 9.8]
