all the degenerate orbitals same same energy or not??

Dear jahnvi

Thanks for asking us a question in Ask the Expert section of TopperLearning.com.

We cannot entertain more than 5 questions in a subject per day. In case of multiple questions within a query, please post each question individually and let us know where you are getting stuck so that we would be able to explain things better.

 

Solution for your first query,

• All p_x , p_y  and p_z have the same value of principle quantum number.
• That means all the three belong to the same energy level.
• They both have the same value of “l”.
• According to Aufbau Principle, energy of an orbital is determined by the formula (n+l).
•  Since, all the three orbitals have the same value for this, they have the same energy.
