Solution
<p>(A) Principle quantum number n is a positive integer and it's possible values are n = 1, 2, 3 ........</p>
<p>$\therefore$ A is correct.</p>
<p>(B) Azimuthal quantum number 'l' for a given 'n' can have values as l = 0, 1, 2 ....... (n $-$ 1)</p>
<p>$\therefore$ Statement B is wrong.</p>
<p>(C) Magnetic orbital quantum number m<sub>l</sub> for particular l has values from $-$ l to + 1 including zero means 2l + 1 values.</p>
<p>$\therefore$ Statement C is correct.</p>
<p>(D) $\pm \,\,{1 \over 2}$ are the two possible orientation of electron spin.</p>
<p>$\therefore$ Statement D is correct.</p>
<p>(E) For l = 5, there will be a total of 11 orbitals.</p>
<p>$l$ = 0 $\Rightarrow$ 5 subshell</p>
<p>$l$ = 1 $\Rightarrow$ p subshell</p>
<p>$l$ = 2 $\Rightarrow$ d subshell</p>
<p>$l$ = 3 $\Rightarrow$ f subshell</p>
<p>$l$ = 4 $\Rightarrow$ g subshell</p>
<p>$l$ = 5 $\Rightarrow$ h subshell</p>
<p>We know,</p>
<p>Number of orbital in any subshell = 2$l$ + 1.</p>
<p>$\therefore$ For h subshell, number of orbitals = 2 $\times$ 5 + 1 = 11</p>
