The electrons,identified by quantum numbers $n$ and $l$ as $(i) n = 4, l = 1$,$(ii) n = 4, l = 0$,$(iii) n = 3, l = 2$,$(iv) n = 3, l = 1$,can be placed in order of increasing energy,from the lowest to highest,as:

  • A
    $(iv) < (ii) < (iii) < (i)$
  • B
    $(ii) < (iv) < (i) < (iii)$
  • C
    $(i) < (iii) < (ii) < (iv)$
  • D
    $(iii) < (i) < (iv) < (ii)$
