Hi, Thanks Pam for your reply, much appreciated. I've tried to do the question I mentioned in the 1st post and get 1 trace for helium (L=0 , S=0 , J=L+S=0). But for Boron , as it has 2 L-S coupled states I get J=1/2 (2 traces) or J=3/4 (4 traces). Which one or a combination of the number of...

Hmmm as simple as that? It's just that its a whole 10 mark Question...
