JEE Main 2026 Chemistry question
Arrange the following atomic orbitals of multi electron atoms in order of increasing energy. A. n=3,l=2,m=+1 B. n=4,l=0,m=0 C. n=6,l=1,m=0 D. n=5,l=1,m=+1 E. n=2,l=1,m=+1
Answer: (D)
Solution
Using the (n+l) rule: E(2+1=3) < B(4+0=4) < A(3+2=5) < D(5+1=6) < C(6+1=7).
