Question:
The magnitude of angular momentum of an electron occupying 3s atomic orbital is
The magnitude of angular momentum of an electron occupying 3s atomic orbital is
Show Hint
The angular momentum of electrons in s orbitals is zero because the orbital angular momentum quantum number is zero.
Updated On: Mar 13, 2025
- $\sqrt{2h}$
- $\sqrt{6h}$
- $\sqrt{3h}$
- 0
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
For an electron in an s orbital (\( l = 0 \)), the angular momentum is given by \[ L = \sqrt{l(l+1)}h, \] which is zero for \( l = 0 \).
