Which one is the wrong statement?

  1. A
    The uncertainty principle is
  2. B
    Half-filled and fully filled orbitals have greater stability due to greater exchange energy, greater symmetry and more balanced arrangement
  3. C
    The energy of orbital is less than the energy of orbital in case of Hydrogen like atoms
  4. D
    de-Broglie's wavelength is given by , where mass of the particle, group velocity of the particle

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

For Hydrogen-like atoms (single electron systems), the energy of an orbital depends only on the principal quantum number ' '. Therefore, all orbitals with the same value of ' ' (like and ) have the same energy; they are degenerate. The statement that is only true for multi-electron atoms due to shielding and penetration effects.
