Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the value of the azimuthal quantum number (l) for a p-orbital? (2015)
  • Step 1: Understand what an orbital is. Orbitals are regions in an atom where electrons are likely to be found.
  • Step 2: Learn about quantum numbers. Quantum numbers describe the properties of orbitals.
  • Step 3: Identify the azimuthal quantum number (l). This number determines the shape of the orbital.
  • Step 4: Know the different types of orbitals: s, p, d, and f.
  • Step 5: Recognize that for a p-orbital, the azimuthal quantum number (l) is defined as 1.
