Chemistry - Atomic Structure Question with Solution | TestHub

The restrictions on azimuthal quantum number, 1 and magnetic quantum number, $m$ give rise to ${\mathrm{n}}^2$ sets of quantum numbers for every value of $n$, the principal quantum number.

Magnetic quantum number distinguishes between the orbitals available within a subshell.

Magnetic spin quantum numbers, $m_s=\pm 1/2$ refer to two quantum mechanical spin states, and are independent of other three quantum numbers.

The restrictions on principal quantum number ( $n$ ), azimuthal quantum number ( 1 ), magnetic quantum number, ( $m$ ) and magnetic spin quantum number ( ${\mathrm{m}}_{\mathrm{s}}$ ), give rise to $2n^2$ sets of quantum numbers for every value of $n$, the principal quantum number.
