Given below are two statements:
Statement-I : The orbitals having same energy are called as degenerate orbitals.
Statement-II : In hydrogen atom, 3p and 3" " d orbitals are not degenerate orbitals.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given
Select the correct option:
A
Statement-I is true but Statement-II is false
B
Both Statement-I and Statement-II are true.
C
Both Statement-I and Statement-II are false
D
Statement-I is false but Statement-II is true
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
For single electron species the energy depends upon principal quantum number ' n ' only.
So, statement II is false.
Statement I is correct definition of degenerate orbitals.
