Answer:

The possible values of l are 2 and 3

Explanation:

Each electrons have four quantum numbers:

  • n: the principal quantum number, which value matches with the energy level of the electron.
  • l: the secondary quantum number, which value can be from 0 to n-1
  • m: the magnetic number, which value can be from -l to l
  • sp: the spin number which value can be -1/2 or +1/2

In this case, n=4 so the values of l are:

l=0, 1, 2, 3

Now, if:

  • l=0 the value of m is m=0
  • l=1 the values of m are m= -1, 0, 1
  • l=2 the values of m are m= -2, -1, 0, 1, 2
  • l=3 the values of m are m= -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3

Being all that said, l can be either  equal to 2 or 3

Hunter-Best [27]

The statement above is FALSE.

Temperature is the degree of coldness or hotness of a body while heat transfer is the transfer of thermal energy from one object to another object. Temperature tells us how cold or hot a body is and it can be measured in Celsius, Kelvin or Fahrenheit. The thermometer is the instrument that is used in the measurement of temperature. Change in temperature is an important indicator that is used in various ways in humans and external systems.
