Q: What is the spin quantum number (m_s) for an electron in an orbital?
Solution:
The spin quantum number can be +1/2 or -1/2 for an electron in an orbital.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that electrons have a property called 'spin'.
Step 2: Know that the spin of an electron can be thought of as a tiny magnet that can point in two directions.
Step 3: The two possible directions for the spin are represented by the numbers +1/2 and -1/2.
Step 4: When an electron is in an orbital, it can have either a spin of +1/2 or -1/2.
Step 5: This means that each orbital can hold two electrons, one with +1/2 spin and one with -1/2 spin.
