What are the values of N, L, and ML for a 3p orbital?
Normally we use the symbols n, l, m, and s (lower case and italicized) to describe the quantum numbers for an electron in an atom. Basically:
n is the shell number, which you indicated to be 3.
l is the angular momentum quantum number, which is 0 for s, 1 for p (your case), 2 for d, 3 for f, 4 for g, ….
You have done nothing to indicate a value for m; however, m is required to be an integer satisfying −l ≤ m ≤ l, so m could be any of −1, 0, or +1.
You did not ask for s nor did you provide any information as to what value it would have, but s must always be −1/2 or + 1/2
