Caesium is element number 55.
Its electronic configuration is [Xe]6s1[Xe]6s1.
So, the principal quantum number, which describes the shell, is n=6n=6, as it is in the 6th shell.
The azimuthal quantum number, which describes the sub-shell, is l=0l=0, as it is in the s-sub-shell. Remember that l=l={l|l∈W;l<nl|l∈W;l<n}.
The magnetic quantum number, which describes the orbital, is m=0m=0, as it is the only orbital present in the s-sub-shell. Remember than m=m={m|m∈Z;−l≤m≤lm|m∈Z;−l≤m≤l}.
The spin quantum number, which describes the spin of the electron, s=s={12,−1212,−12}. Remember that there is only one electron in the orbital in question. So, its spin may be any of the two values. (If there were two, electron under consideration may have any spin (±12±12), but the other electron necessarily has the opposite spin
