Question

Orbital angular momentum depends on _____?

Answer 1

Azimuthal quantum number:

1. So basically angular momentum is defined as the property of any rotating object which is obviously given by the moment of inertia times the an gular velocity.
2. The azimuthal quantum number is actually the set of quantum numbers which just describe the unique quantum state of the particular electron.
3. And it is actually termed as the orbital angular momentum quantum number, and so is symbolized as $\mathrm{\ell }$.
4. The number will also describe the shape of the orbital as well as also describes the orbital angular momentum.
5. Example for angular quantum momentum number: a p orbital that is just associated with an azimuthal quantum number and equal to 1.

Therefore, Orbital angular momentum depends on Azimuthal quantum number.
