Angular momentum and Spin. An electron in an H-atom has orbital angular momentum magnitude and
z-component given by
L² = 1(1+1)ħ², 1 = 0,1,2,..., n-1
Lz = m₂ħ,
m₁ = 0, ±1, ±2,..., ±l

S² = s(s+1)h² = h²,

L.min = cos
Clue: the angle a vector with magnitude V from the z-axis can be computed from cos 0 = V²/V
How many electron states are there in the following shells: (a) n = 4, (b) n = 1, (c) n = 3, (d) n = 2?

Consider an excited electron (n > 1) on an H-atom.
The total angular momentum ] = L + Š, whose magnitude and z-component follow a similar
dependence to some quantum numbers j and m; as
J² = j(j + 1)ħ², Jz = mjħ

S₂ = m₂h = ± = h
Where j and m; are quantum numbers which assume values that jumps in steps of one such
that j is non-negative and −j ≤ m¡ ≤ j. For a given quantum number 1, what are the (two)
possible values for j?
Clue: we can use the vector sum relation of angular momenta, then consider the z-component only.
