Azimuthal quantum number
magnetic quantum number
The shape of the electron cloud is determined by the secondary quantum number. The first is n, or the energy level, the second is the sublevel, the third is the specific cloud, and the fourth is the spin.
The angular momentum number shows the shape of the electron cloud or the orbital. The magnetic quantum number, on the other hand, determines the number of orbitals and their orientation within a subshell.
No, for any given electron, the principle quantum number will be larger. For example, a second shell, p-subshell electron will have the quantum numbers {2, 1, ml, ms} where mlcan be -1, 0, or 1 and, as always, ms can be ½ or -½. The largest ml can be is +1, which is smaller than the principle quantum number, 2.
An electron configuration shows the distribution of electrons among the subshells. Each number shows the principal quantum number, or shell, the subshell and finally the orbital of the electron.

The specific orbital within a sublevel- apex
The second quantum number, or "l" which describes the subshell (s, p, d, f, etc).
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.
