Quantum numbers are a set of values that describes the state of an electron including its distance from the nucleus, the orientation and type of orbital where it is likely to be found, and its spin. The Pauli exclusion principle states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers.
Each electron in an atom is described by four different quantum numbers. The first three (n, l, ml) specify the particular orbital of interest, and the fourth (ms) specifies how many electrons can occupy that orbital.

Answer:
Quantum Numbers
To completely describe an electron in an atom, four quantum numbers are needed: energy (n), angular momentum (ℓ), magnetic moment (mℓ), and spin (ms).
The first quantum number describes the electron shell, or energy level, of an atom. ...
The dynamics of any quantum system are described by a quantum Hamiltonian (H).
