    The four quantum numbers of the valence electron of potassium are :

    A)  4, 1, 0 and \[\frac{1}{2}\]   

    B)  4, 0,1 and \[\frac{1}{2}\]

    C)  4, 0, 0 and \[+\frac{1}{2}\]

    D)  4, 1, 1, and \[\frac{1}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Write the electronic configuration of potassium and then find quantum numbers of valence shell electron. \[K=19=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}},2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}},3{{p}^{6}},4{{s}^{1}}\] \[\therefore \] Valence shell electron is 4s1 \[\therefore \] \[n=4\] \[l=0\] \[m=0\] \[s=\frac{1}{2}\]
