For the 4s electron in titanium: n = 4, l = 0, m_l = 0, m_s = +1/2
For the 3d electron in titanium: n = 3, l = 2, m_l = -2, m_s = -1/2
There can be two electrons with those quantum numbers in an atom. Each electron is completely described by four quantum numbers. The one that's missing in the list provided is ms, which can have only two possible values (+1/2 and -1/2).
How are electrons arranged in the quantum mechanical model of an atom
The Pauli exclusion principle, which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers. This includes the spin quantum number, which can have values of +1/2 (up) or -1/2 (down). So, in the 1s orbital, the two electrons must have different spin quantum numbers to adhere to this principle.
If the principal quantum number is 4 and the angular quantum number is 2, the possible number of electrons is 10. This is because the maximum number of electrons that can fit into an energy level with n=4 and l=2 is given by 2(2l + 1), which equals 2(2*2 + 1) = 10 electrons.
Quantum numbers describe the properties of electrons in an atom, such as energy levels and orbital shapes, while an address is a numerical or alphanumeric designation for a physical location. Quantum numbers help us understand the behavior of electrons within an atom, whereas an address helps us locate a place in physical space.
Electrons are generally gathered around an atom beginning with the lowest possible quantum numbers.

The energy levels and orbitals the electrons are in
Titanium has 22 electrons in a neutral atom. In its ground state (electronic configuration 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d2 4s2), the electrons are distributed among the orbitals with 2 in the 1s orbital, 2 in the 2s orbital, 6 in the 2p orbital, 2 in the 3s orbital, 6 in the 3p orbital, 2 in the 3d orbital, and 4 in the 4s orbital.

How are electrons arranged in the quantum mechanical model of an atom
Four quantum numbers are used to describe electrons in atoms.
In theory, the number of electrons with each quantum number is not limited. However, for any given "main quantum number" (n), the number of electrons having the other quantum numbers is limited - but it depends on the value of "n". For more information, the Wikipedia article on "quantum number" seems to give a good overview.
There are seven different possible magnetic quantum numbers or seven orbitals. In that cause the maximum number of electrons an f orbital will hold would be fourteen.
f orbital corresponds to n=4. l = n-1 = 3. The magnetic quantum numbers run from -l to l, or -3, -2,... 3. Thus there are seven possible magnetic quantum numbers, or seven orbitals. Since each orbital has 2 electrons max, an f orbital can hold 14 electrons.
n = 1 l = 0 m = 0 s = +1/2 and s = -1/2
These are: principal quantum number (n), azimutal quantum number (ł), magnetic quantum number (m), spin quantum number (sd).
