Principal quantum number (n) - describes the SIZE of the orbital or ENERGY LEVEL of the atom. Angular quantum number (l) or sublevels - describes the SHAPE of the orbital. Magnetic quantum number (m) - describes an orbital's ORIENTATION in space. Spin quantum number (s) - describes the SPIN or direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise) in which an electron spins. Quantum Numbers
3
Principle Quantum Number (n) or Energy Level integer values used to specify the shell/size/level the electron is in describes how far away from the nucleus the electron shell or level under consideration is the lower the number, the closer the energy level is to the atom's nucleus and less energy maximum # of electrons that can fit in an energy level is given by formula 2n 2
6
Angular Quantum Number (l) or Sub-level determines the shape of the orbital they are numbered but are also given letters referring to the orbital type l=0 refers to the s-orbitals l=1 refers to the p-orbitals l=2 refers to the d-orbitals l=3 refers to the f-orbitals
8
Magnetic quantum number (m) or Orbitals the third of a set of quantum numbers tells us how many orbitals there are of a particular type and their orientation in space of a particular orbital only two electrons can fit in an orbital = electron
9
S – orbitals only holds two electrons
10
P – orbitals holds up to six electrons
11

12
D – orbitals holds up to 10 electrons
14
F – orbitals holds up to 14 electrons

18
Spin quantum number (s) the fourth of a set of quantum numbers number specifying the direction of the spin of an electron around its own axis. only two electrons of opposite spin may occupy an orbit the only possible values of a spin quantum number are +1/2 or -1/2.
