10 Questions
Quantum numbers in quantum physics correspond to eigenvalues of operators that do not commute with the Hamiltonian.
False
Quantum mechanics leads to quantum numbers that take values in discrete sets of integers or half-integers, but never approach infinity.
False
Quantum numbers fully characterize a basis state of a quantum system, and can be measured together at the same time as the system's energy.
True
Quantization of many observable quantities in quantum mechanics leads to quantum numbers that take values in continuous sets of integers or half-integers.
False
Quantum numbers often describe specifically the mass, charge, or momentum of a quantum system.
False
True or false: Quantum numbers describe values of conserved quantities in the dynamics of a quantum system.
