Is there any specific magnetic quantum number for d orbitals......like for dxy magnetic quantum number is -2, for dyz it is -1. If yes then please explain it
Dear Student,
For d-orbitals,
The specific orbital in which the electron is located is given by the magnetic quantum number, ml . For any d-subshell, the magnetic quantum number can take the values
ml = { − 2 , − 1 , − 0 , + 1 , + 2 }
Each of these five values describes one of the five d-orbitals available in a d-subshell.
Regards,
