Answer:

Explanation:

the magnetic quantum number (ml) can range from –l to +l. The number of possible values is the number of lobes (orbitals) there are in the s, p, d, and f subshells.

the s subshell has one lobe, the p subshell has three lobes, the d subshell has five lobes, and the f subshell has seven lobes. Each of these lobes is labeled differently and is named depending on which plane the lobe is resting in. If the lobe lies along the x plane, then it is labeled with an x, as in 2px. If the lobe lies along the xy plane, then it is labeled with a xy such as dxy. Electrons are found within the lobes. The plane (or planes) that the orbitals do not fill are called nodes. These are regions in which there is a 0 probability density of finding electrons. For example, in the dyx orbital, there are nodes on planes xz and yz.
