Structure of Atom - Result Question 45
####49. The orientation of an atomic orbital is governed by
(a) Spin quantum number
[2006]
(b) Magnetic quantum number
(c) Principal quantum number
(d) Azimuthal quantum number
Show Answer
Solution:
- (b) Magnetic quantum no. represents the orientation of atomic orbitals in an atom. For example $p_x, p_y & p_z$ have orientation along $X$-axis, $Y$-axis & Z-axis.
