Explain the quantum number m.

Explanation

Magnetic quantum number `(m_(l))` describes the behaviour of electrons in magnetic field. It gives the information about the spatial orientation of the orbital. The values of m, are linked to that of 4. For a given value of l, possible values of `m_(l)` vary from . to 0 and 0 to +l. Thus, the total values of `m_(l)` are (2l+1).
