Question

give the n and i values for the following orbitals: 4p

Explanation:

In atomic orbital notation, the principal quantum number \( n \) is the number before the letter. For \( 4p \), \( n = 4 \). The angular - momentum quantum number \( l \) is related to the orbital type: \( l=0 \) for \( s \) - orbitals, \( l = 1 \) for \( p \) - orbitals, \( l=2 \) for \( d \) - orbitals, and \( l = 3 \) for \( f \) - orbitals. Since it is a \( p \) - orbital, \( l=1 \).

Answer:

\( n = 4, l = 1 \)
