**Quantum Numbers Problem Set**

---

**a. The following is not a possible set of quantum numbers. Which of the quantum numbers is not consistent with the others, or is just wrong?**

- \( n = 0 \)
- \( \ell = 1 \)
- \( m_\ell = 0 \)
- \( m_s = +1/2 \)

Options:
- \( n \)
- \( \ell \)
- \( m_\ell \)
- \( m_s \)

---

**b. The following is not a possible set of quantum numbers. Which of the quantum numbers is not consistent with the others, or is just wrong?**

- \( n = 2 \)
- \( \ell = 1 \)
- \( m_\ell = -1 \)
- \( m_s = 0 \)

Options:
- \( n \)
- \( \ell \)
- \( m_\ell \)
- \( m_s \)

---

**Note:** Quantum numbers describe the properties and locations of electrons in an atom. They must follow specific rules, such as:

- \( n \) (principal quantum number) must be a positive integer.
- \( \ell \) (azimuthal quantum number) must be in the range 0 to \( n-1 \).
- \( m_\ell \) (magnetic quantum number) must be between \(-\ell\) and \(\ell\).
- \( m_s \) (spin quantum number) can be \( +1/2 \) or \(-1/2 \).

---

**Instructions:**
Select the quantum number from each set that does not comply with these rules.
