MCQ
The quantum number/s needed to describe an electron fully in an atom is/are:
  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • $4$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$4$
d
The number of quantum numbers needed to completely define an electron in the orbit of an atom is $4 .$

Thus all the four quantum numbers $n , l , m$ and $n$ are required. This is in accordance with Pauli's exclusion principle according to which, no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers.
