n is the principal quantum number. It states the shell it belongs to n can take values 1,2,3,4... so on.
The maximum number of electrons in a shell can be 2(n^2)
l is the azimuthal quantum number , it defines the orbital it belongs to.
l=0; s orbital
l=1; p orbital
l=2;d orbital
For the given question principal quantum number n=4;
azimuthal quantum number l=1; therefore it is in p orbital.
Answer: 4p
