The azimuthal quantum number ( l ) for electrons in a sub-shell is determined by the type of sub-shell. For the 5p sub-shell, ( l ) equals 1, as ( p ) corresponds to ( l = 1 ). Thus, all electrons present in the 5p sub-shell have an azimuthal quantum number ( l = 1 ).

The specific orbital within a sublevel- apex
The third quantum number, known as the magnetic quantum number (mℓ), provides information about the orientation of an orbital in a given subshell. It can take integer values ranging from -ℓ to +ℓ, where ℓ is the azimuthal quantum number representing the subshell (s, p, d, f, etc.). This number indicates the specific orbital within a subshell where an electron is likely to be found, helping to define the spatial distribution of electrons around the nucleus.
In the electron configuration of aluminum, the 3p1 electron corresponds to the 3rd energy level (n=3) and is in the p subshell. The second quantum number, also known as the azimuthal quantum number (l), for a p subshell is 1. Therefore, the second quantum number of the 3p1 electron in aluminum is l = 1.
The magnetic quantum number ml depends on the orbital angular momentum (azimuthal) quantum number, l, which in turn depends on the principal quantum number, n. The orbital angular momentum (azimuthal) quantum number, l, runs from 0 to (n-1) where n is the principal quantum number. l= 0 is an s orbital, l= 1 is a p subshell, l= 2 is a d subshell, l=3 is an f subshell. The magnetic quantum number, ml, runs from -l to +l (sorry this font is rubbish the letter l looks like a 1) so for an f orbital the values are -3. -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3, so 7 f orbitals in total. ml "defines " the shape of the orbital and the number within the subshell.

The maximum number of electrons that can be present in each shell or subshell is determined by the formula 2n2, where n is the principal quantum number of the shell or subshell.
The outermost electrons in a nitrogen atom have an azimuthal quantum number of 1, which corresponds to the p orbital.

The type of orbital the electron is in.
An azimuthal quantum number is a quantum number which represents the angular momentum of an atomic orbital.
In the electron configuration of aluminum, the 3p1 electron corresponds to the 3rd energy level (n=3) and is in the p subshell. The second quantum number, also known as the azimuthal quantum number (l), for a p subshell is 1. Therefore, the second quantum number of the 3p1 electron in aluminum is l = 1.
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 magnetic quantum number ml depends on the orbital angular momentum (azimuthal) quantum number, l, which in turn depends on the principal quantum number, n. The orbital angular momentum (azimuthal) quantum number, l, runs from 0 to (n-1) where n is the principal quantum number. l= 0 is an s orbital, l= 1 is a p subshell, l= 2 is a d subshell, l=3 is an f subshell.
