Q47 / 180 · NEET 2018 · Chemistry

Which one is a wrong statement?

  • Correct answer
    A
    The electronic configuration of N atom is, 
    Figure
  • B
    An orbital is designated by three quantum numbers, while an electron in an atom is designated by four quantum numbers.
  • C
    Total orbital angular momentum of electron in 's' orbital is equal to zero.
  • D
    The value of m for dz2 is zero.

Solution

Electronic configuration of N 

He2s2, 2p3

The correct configuration of 'N' is,

Figure

According to Hunds' rule, the electron first singly occupied in parallel, then anti-parallel in any particular orbital. In the given option, the last electron of P-orbital is in downwards spin. So, option 1 is incorrect.

Orbital angular momentum of any orbital, 

L=l  l+1 . h2πFor S-orbital, l value =0So, L = 0 

 

 

 

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
