What are the possible values of l for each of the following values of n?

  1. What are the possible values of l for each of the following values of n ?
    n=1,2,3,4
  2. What are the possible values of ml for each of the following values of l?
    l=0,1,2,3

Answer:

  1. The possible values of l is from 0 to n-1.
    So, when n=1, l=0
    when n=2, l=0, 1
    when n=3, l=0, 1, 2
    when n=4, l=0, 1, 2, 3
  2. The possible values of ml is from 0 to l, both positive and negative values.
    So, when l=0, ml=0
    when l=1, ml= 0, 1, -1
    when l=2, ml= 0, 1, -1, 2, -2
    when l=3, ml= 0, 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3
