AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on determining the number of atomic orbitals in the 2s and 6f subshells. For the 2s subshell, the principal quantum number (n) is confirmed as 2, and the angular momentum quantum number (L) is correctly identified as 0. In the case of the 6f subshell, n is correctly stated as 6, with L being 3. The participants reference external resources, like Wikipedia, to verify their understanding of electron shells and quantum numbers. Overall, the participants express confidence in their conclusions regarding the quantum numbers for these subshells.

i asked to find the number of Atomic orbital of: principal quantum number(n) and the orbital Angular momentum quantum number (L) of the orbital 2s


tell me if i correct n=2 and the Angular momentum L=0 ?

and in the orbital 6f n=6? and L=3?

thanks.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Take a look on wikipedia's article on "electron shell". That should help you out.
 
well after i read i think i am correct.
(n = 1) + (l = 0) = 1 1s
(n = 2) + (l = 0) = 2 2s
and so on..

but i still want to be sure.

thanks.

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
