      Question

      Two orbitals occupying the same position are

      distinguished by-
      A azimuthal quantum number Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B principle quantum number Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C spin quantum number Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D magnetic quantum number Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      As the two electrons are in the same orbital, the other three values would be the same. Therefore, spin quantum numbers will distinguish between them as one will have +1/2 and the other will have −1/2 spin quantum number.
