n (Principal quantum number) value tell about the shell to which the electro belong, Ex,If n=1 electron belongs to first shell (K) around the nucleus
l (Azimuthal quantum number) tell about angular momentum, and shape of the orbitals, and it designates the subshells to which the electron belongs to. For a given value of 'n', ' l' can have value ranging from 0 to n-1. Ex, If n=2 then , the value of 'l' will be 0 and 1 (0 to n-1)
ml ( Magnetic orbital quantum number) determines the number of preferred orientations of the orbitals in the subshell, which are defined by given 'l' value. ex if 'l'= 2 then ml = 2l+1 =2*2 +1= 5 m value ie., m = +2,+1,0,-2,-1
