Question 25 (6 points) Match each orbital shown with a valid set of quantum numbers. Some sets of quantum numbers will not be used: 1. n = 3, l = 1, ml = 0, ms = +1 2. n = 5, l = 2, ml = -1, ms = +1/2 3. n = 2, l = 0, ml = 0, ms = -1/2 4. n = 4, l = 2, ml = +3, ms = -1/2 5. n = 6, l = 1, ml = +1, ms = -1/2 6. n = 0, l = 0, ml = 0, ms = +1/2
