• The following quantum numbers describes the shape of an orbital:

,

• angular quantum number

Reason : The subdivision of the electronic shell generates the subshell, thus, a set of numbers, called quantum numbers is needed to thoroughly explain an electronic configuration and the location of an electron in an atom.
