Answer:
Magnetic Quantum Number (ml): ml = -l, ..., 0, ..., +l. Specifies the orientation in space of an orbital of a given energy (n) and shape (l). This number divides the subshell into individual orbitals which hold the electrons; there are 2l+1 orbitals in each subshell.

Heyaa,
Quantum numbers are numbers assigned to all the electrons in an atom and they describe certain characteristics of the electron.
- Quantum number are those numbers that designate and distinguish various atomic orbitals and electrons present in an atom. A set of four numbers through which we can get the complete information about all the electrons in an atom, be it energy, location, space, type of orbital occupied, and even the orientation of that orbital is called Quantum Numbers.
- The Principal Quantum Number represents the principal energy level or shell in which an electron revolves around the nucleus. It is denoted by the letter n and can have any integral value except the 0 i.e. n = 1, 2, 3, 4 … etc. The energies of the various principal shells will follow the sequence as :
K < L < M < N < O …..
1 < 2 < 3 < 4 < 5 …….
Azimuthal Quantum Number
Azimuthal quantum number, also known as orbital quantum number determines the subshell to which an electron belongs. As a matter of result, the number of electronic jump increases and the number of lines at the same time.
- For a given value of n, it can have any integral value ranging from 0 to n – 1.
- For the 1st Shell, say K, n = 1, you can have only one value i.e. l = 0
- For the 2nd Shell, say L, n = 2, you can have two values i.e. l = 0 and 1
- For the 3rd Shell, say M, n = 3, you can have three values i.e. l = 0, 1 and 2
- For the 4th shells, say N, n = 4, you can have four values i.e. l = 0, 1, 2 and 3
Hope it Helps !!
