MCQ
Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: The orbitals having same energy are called as degenerate orbitals
Statement-II: In hydrogen atom, 3p and 3d orbitals are not degenerate orbitals.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given
  • Statement-I is true but Statement-II is false
  • B
    Both Statement-I and Statement-II are true.
  • C
    Both Statement-I and Statement-II are false
  • D
    Statement-I is false but Statement-II is true
