Question

For the hydrogen atom:

a) How many different 3d states are there?

b) What physical property of properties (as opposed to quantum numbers) distinguishes them, and what different values may this property or these properties assume?

c) Identify all the different total angular momentum states (sets of {j, mj}) that a 3d electron can occupy.

d) An external magnetic field much stronger than the atom's internal, self-generated magnetic fields is applied to the atom. Into how many distinct energy levels would the 3d split, and what would bet he spacing (energy difference) between them?
