Want this question answered?
the quantum number n determines the energy of an electron in a hyrdogen atom.
A 2p electron
Yes, quantum numbers define the energy states and the orbitals available to an electron. The principal quantum number (n) determines the energy level or shell of an electron, the azimuthal quantum number (l) determines the shape or orbital type, the magnetic quantum number (m) determines the orientation of the orbital, and the spin quantum number (+1/2 or -1/2) determines the spin state of the electron. Together, these quantum numbers provide a complete description of the electron's state within an atom.
I am checking the Wikipedia article on "quantum number", and don't find a quantum number "i" for the electron. If you mean "l", it seems that "l" can be between 0 and n-1. So, for n = 3, l can be between 0 and 2. If this is what you mean, I don't see any reason that would forbid this particular combination.
3s has a principle quantum number of n=3 5s has a principle quantum number of n=5

Principal quantum numbers (n).
A 2p electron
The four quantum numbers, n, l, m1, and ms, are all solutions to Schrödinger's equation. These numbers are used to assign each electron in an atom an "address." They "uniquely characterize an electron and its state in an atom" ("Quantum Number").

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).
