Answer:
The azimuthal quantum number is a set of non-negative integers which define the shape of an orbital. It is denoted by l. l = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4… It is also called as the orbital angular momentum quantum number or orbital quantum number because it determines the orbital angular momentum, which is analogous to the classical angular momentum.
It is one of the four quantum numbers that identify an electron in an atom. The others are the principal quantum number, magnetic quantum number, and spin quantum number.
The azimuthal quantum number is a very important since it governs the geometry of an orbital and the orbital angular momentum. It was put forward by Arnold Sommerfeld, a German theoretical physicist.
