उत्तर

  1. Azimuthal quantum number is also known as the subsidiary quantum number and is represented by the letter l.
  2. It represents the subshell to which the electron belongs. It also defines the shape of the orbital that is occupied by the electron.
  3. Its value depends upon the value of principal quantum number ‘n’. It can have only positive values between 0 and (n − 1).
  4. Atomic orbitals with the same value of ‘n’ but different values of ‘l’ constitute a subshell belonging to the shell for the given ‘n’. The azimuthal quantum number gives the number of subshells in a principal shell. The subshells have l to be 0, 1, 2, 3 … which are represented by symbols s, p, d, f, … respectively.
    Principal shell Value of n Permissible value of l Possible subshell Number of subshells in shell
    K 1 0 s 1
    L 2 0, 1 s, p 2
    M 3 0, 1, 2 s, p, d 3
    N 4 0, 1, 2, 3 s, p, d, f 4
