How to determnine quantum numbers of hybridized orbitals?
For example:We have sp3 orbital,so its quantum numbers are n=1,l=0 and 1,m=0 and -1,0,1?Or how?Or they are in some way added up together?
Thanks

The sp3 hybrid orbitals are formed by taking mixtures of |s>, |px>, |py> and |pz>, right? So they are not eigenstates of ℓ and m, and you can't use these quantum numbers to label them.
 


But I think it generally.What kind of quantum numbers have molecular orbital?Atomic orbital has 4 quantum numbers and molecular has...?

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
