Answer

1p, 3f, 2d

Work Step by Step

To determine which orbital designations are incorrect, we need to apply the rule that the azimuthal quantum number 𝑙 must be less than the principal quantum number 𝑛: 𝑙=0 → s orbital 𝑙=1 → p orbital 𝑙=2 → d orbital 𝑙=3 → f orbital Let's analyze the given orbitals: 1s: 𝑛=1,𝑙=0, 𝑙
