Problem 6.58
Part A
Give the values for n, l, and ml for each orbital in the 2p subshell,
Enter your answer as sets of values of n, l, and ml for different orbitals separated by commas. Separate values within each set by semicolons. Enter your answers in order of increasing n, then in order of increasing l, and then in order of increasing ml. Example: "1;0;-1,1;1;-1,1;2;1" (n;l;ml,n;l;ml,n;l;ml).

Explanation / Answer
The principle quantum number (n) describes the size of the orbital. The allowed values of n are 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on.
The azimuthal quantum number (l) describes shape of the orbital. The l values can be any integer between 0 to n-1.
The magnetic quantum number (m) describes the orientation of the orbital in space. The m values can be any integer between +l to -l.
Part A
For n=4, the possible l values are 0, 1, 2, 3.
Part B
For l=2, the possible ml values are -2, -1, 0, +1, +2.
Part C
For ml=2, the possible l values are 2, 3, 4 and so on.
Part A
For a 2p subshell, n=2 ; l=1 and ml=-1, 0, -1.
The n ,l, ml values in the required format will be 2;1;-1;2;1;0;2;1;+1.
Part B
For 5d subshell, n=5, l=2 and ml=-2, -1, 0, +1, +2.
The n ,l, ml values in the required format will be 5;2;-2;5;2;-1;5;2;0;5;2;+1;5;2;+2.
