Principal Quantum Number •The principal quantum number (n) specifies the main energy levels around the nucleus •As n increases, the distance from the nucleus increases (So as the numbers become larger the levels become further from the nucleus) •Currently the values for n are 1 to 7 •These orbitals are called subshells or sublevels •The four most common Principal quantum numbers are given letter abbreviations s, p, d, f Orbital Quantum Number •Orbital Quantum Number ( l ) indicates the shape of the orbital where the electron can be found “s” Orbital “p” Orbital “d” Orbital
