Answer:

The set of numbers used to describe the position and energy of the electron in an atom are called quantum numbers. Principal quantum number, denoted by n. Orbital angular momentum quantum number (or azimuthal quantum number), denoted by l. Magnetic quantum number, denoted by ml.

Answer:

i) Principle quantum number:- In quantum mechanics, the principal quantum number is one of four quantum numbers assigned to each electron in an atom to describe that electron's state. Its values are natural numbers making it a discrete variable.

ii) Azimuthal quantum number:- The azimuthal quantum number is a quantum number for an atomic orbital that determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital. ... It is also known as the orbital angular momentum quantum number, orbital quantum number or second quantum number, and is symbolized as ℓ (pronounced ell).
