A. QUANTUM NUMBERS
1. State the four quantum numbers and the possible values they may have.

4 Quantum Numbers Short Description/Definition Possible Values

Principal Quantum Number Refers to the energy level and the size Positive integers such as 1, 2 ,3
of the orbital an electron is likely to be 4…….
found. It describes the energy of an
electron.

Angular Quantum Number It defines the shape of an atomic 0,1,2,3…. (0 to n-1)

orbital.

Magnetic Quantum Number It describes the orientation of the orbital - l , ….. -1,0,1……, + l
in space and can have integral values.

Spin Quantum Number Individual electrons within orbital have +1/2, -1/2
a property represented by the spin
quantum number.
