The letter "p" in the symbol 4p3 indicates the ____ A spin of an electron.
B orbital shape.
C principle energy level.
D speed of an electron.
Given:Electron configuration represented by: 4p³To determine:The representation of the letter 'p'Explanation:In quantum mechanics, an electron in an orbital is described by a set of 3 quantum numbersn: this is the principal quantum number which describes the size of the orbitall = angular momentum quantum number which describes the shape of the orbitalm = magnetic momentum which describes the electron orientationIn the given configuration:n = 4l = 1 which corresponds to p-orbitalAns: (B)The letter p- corresponds to the shape of the orbital...
