    This document discusses the four quantum numbers that describe the location of an electron: 1) The principal quantum number (n) indicates the electron's energy level and distance from the nucleus. 2) The second quantum number (l) indicates the sublevel shape, such as spherical, dumbbell, or double dumbbell donut. 3) The magnetic quantum number (ml) indicates the orientation of the region in space. 4) The spin quantum number (ms) indicates the electron's spin orientation as either +1/2 or -1/2.

    Quantum Numbers Notes and Practice

    This is our final way to describe the location of an electron. It consists of four numbers that act as coordinates to
    locate the electron’s position. These numbers will refers only to the element’s highest energy electron because the
    other fall into the same locations that have been described in the elements preceding it.
    1. Principle Quantum Number (n):
    a. ENERGY LEVEL
    b. Indicate distance from the nucleus
    c. How to figure it out:

    d. Options available:

    2. Second Quantum Number (ℓ):


    a. SUBLEVELS
    b. Indicates the shape of the region.
    i. Spherical - ______

    ii. Dumbbell - ______

    iii. Double dumbbell donut - ______

    iv. Fancy - ______

    c. How to figure it out:

    d. Options available:

    3. Magnetic Quantum Number (mℓ):


    a. ORBITALS
    b. Indicate the orientation of the region in space
    c. How to figure it out:

    d. Options available:

    4. Spin Quantum Number (ms):


    a. When two electrons are in a magnetic field, they will align opposite of one another. This is called the
    “spin”.
    b. The electrons within an orbital must have opposite spins to overcome their repulsion.
    c. How to figure it out:

    d. Options available:
