Make a list of all the possible sets of quantum numbers that an electron in an atom can have if n = 4. How many different states with n = 4 are there? Indicate on your list which states are degenerate (i.e. have the same energy as other n = 4 states). Assume that the electron is in a multi-electron atom (i.e. not the Hydrogen atom). Does the total number of states agree with the general rule that the number of states is equal to 2n^2.
