I need help with a and b. I was not really sure about the answer. Quantum numbers (n,1, m¡) describe the state of an electron in an atomic orbital. The valuesthey can assume are: n =0,±,1, · . .±1 (magnetic).1,2,3, · .. (principal), 1 = 0,1, ·. . , (n – 1) (angular momentum), m¡(a) What set of numbers (complex, integer, rational, real, etc.) do these quantum numbers belongto?(b) What set of numbers would their classical analogs belong to? Hint. Is classical energy orangular momenta, discrete or continuous?
