Detailed Solution

electrons in 2s and 2p orbitals have different screen effect. Hence, their Zeff is different. Zeff  of 2s orbital>Zeff  of 2p orbital.Therefore, it is not correct.Energy of 2s orbital < energy of 2p orbital.Zeff  of 1 s orbital ≠Zeff  of 2s orbital, hence it is incorrectFor the two electrons of 2s orbital, the value of ms is +12  and  −12. Hence, it is correct.
