Question

A special line will be seen for a $2p_x \to 2p_y$ transition. Energy is released in the form of waves of light when the electron drops from $2p_x$ to $2p_y$ orbital.

• A. If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion
• B. If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion
• C. If Assertion is true but the Reason is false
• D. If both Assertion and Reason are false

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

If both Assertion and Reason are false

Answer 2

No transition can take place between $2 p_{x} \rightarrow 2 p_{y}$ as $2 p_{x}$ and $2 p_{y}$ are degenerate orbitals.
