- **Problem 3** - In an atom, the total number of electrons having quantum numbers n = 4 $ |m_{l}|$ = 1 and $m_{z} $= - 1/2 is
- **Ans -** n = 4 $ \hspace {2mm}|m_{l}| = 1\hspace {2mm} m_s = -1/2$
- l = 0
- l = 1 (-1) , 0 , (1)
- l = 2 -2 , -1 , 0 , (1) , 2
- l = 3 -3 , -2 , -1 , 0 , (1) , 2 , 3
- The total number of electrons is 6
