The spin quantum number was created in the early twentieth century to account for the magnetic properties of the electron. It has only two possible values, +1/2 and -1/2, which indicates the two possible spin states of the electron. A single orbital can hold up to 2 electrons, which must have opposite spin states.
Four quantum numbers are used to describe electrons. The principle quantum number is the energy level of an electron. The angular momentum number is the shape of the orbital holding the electron. The magnetic quantum number is the position of an orbital holding an electron. The spin quantum number is the spin of an 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.
Good question! Experiments show that the electron "behaves" as if it is a spinning ball of charge. But be careful...the electron IS NOT a spinning ball of charge. Instead the concept is quantum mechanical and has no actual classical analogy. why we r taking the spin of the electorn is +1/2 or -1/2 is there any relation bet rotational symmetry

direction of electron spin
Just two, +1/2, -1/2. These correspond to electrons of opposite spin.
the factors that leads to electron spin is the attratctive force between nucleus and electron. this can illustrate with the example sun and earth. this can be calculate by spin quantum number.

the spin quantum number has only two possible values__(+ 1/2 & -1/2)
The number of electrons (charge -1 per e) in a certain atom is equal to the the number of protons (charge +1 per p), since it's neutral. The proton number is the same as the atom number of that particular element (atom) in the periodic table.
