secondary quantum numberI don't think it is a number, but it could be referring to the Orbitals, being S, P, D, and F. Each orbital is a specific shape and the orbitals are determined in blocks on the Periodic Table. The energy, or Quantum Number would go in front, such as 4p, which means the principal quantum number or energy level is 4 and the orbital shape is p. Hope this helps
The principal quantum number (n) defines the main energy level or shell of an electron in an atom. It determines the average distance of the electron from the nucleus, as well as the energy of the electron. The higher the principal quantum number, the higher the energy level and the greater the distance from the nucleus.
To determine the orbital for an electron based on its quantum numbers, we need the values of the principal quantum number ( n ), the azimuthal quantum number ( l ), and the magnetic quantum number ( m_l ). The principal quantum number ( n ) indicates the energy level, while the azimuthal quantum number ( l ) specifies the shape of the orbital (e.g., ( l = 0 ) for s, ( l = 1 ) for p, ( l = 2 ) for d, etc.). The magnetic quantum number ( m_l ) further defines the orientation of the orbital within that shape. If you provide specific quantum numbers, I can identify the exact orbital.
The place where electrons reside around an atomic nucleus is called an electron cloud or electron shell. Electrons exist in specific energy levels or orbitals within this cloud, which defines their probable locations. These regions are not fixed paths but rather areas where the likelihood of finding an electron is highest.
The term that defines the areas of electron density around a nucleus is the electron cloud or electron shell. These shells represent different energy levels or orbitals where electrons can be found. Each shell can hold a specific number of electrons.
An electron's path around the nucleus defines its energy level. The energy levels are quantized, meaning electrons can only exist at specific distances from the nucleus.
The principal quantum number (n) defines the main energy level or shell of an electron in an atom. It determines the average distance of the electron from the nucleus, as well as the energy of the electron. The higher the principal quantum number, the higher the energy level and the greater the distance from the nucleus.
In my opinion quantum nos are those which defines the property of electron.
The quantum number that indicactes the shape of an orbital in called the angular momentum quantum number.
The complete set of quantum numbers for the fifth electron added to a hydrogen ion would be n=2, l=1, ml=-1, ms=+1/2. The principal quantum number (n=2) defines the energy level, the azimuthal quantum number (l=1) defines the subshell, the magnetic quantum number (ml=-1) defines the orientation in space, and the spin quantum number (ms=+1/2) defines the spin direction.
An azimuthal quantum number is a quantum number which represents the angular momentum of an atomic orbital.
Latitude defines the distance from the equator, measured in degrees north or south.
Electron
The principal quantum number (n) is needed to determine the size of an atomic electron. The shape of an atomic electron is determined by the azimuthal quantum number (l) and the magnetic quantum number (m).
The Displacement vector, defines the distance and direction between two positions.
neutrons and protons
