Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R).$

Assertion $(A) :$ Metallic character decreases and non-metallic character increases on moving from left to right in a period.

Reason $(R)$ $:$ It is due to increase in ionisation enthalpy and decrease in electron gain enthalpy, when one moves from left to right in a period.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

Consider the following statements:

$(A)$ The principal quantum number $'n'$ is a positive integer with values of $'n'=1,2,3, \ldots$.

$(B)$ The azimuthal quantum number $'l'$ for a given $'n'$ (principal quantum number) can have values as $'l'=0,1,2, \ldots n$

$(C)$ Magnetic orbital quantum number $'m _{l}'$ for a particular $'l'$ (azimuthal quantum number) has $(2 l$ + 1) values.

$(D)$ $\pm 1 / 2$ are the two possible orientations of electron spin.

$(E)$ For $l=5$, there will be a total of $9$ orbital.
