Azimuthal Quantum Number

Azimuthal Quantum Number

### Formula:

$$l=0,1,2,...(n-1)$$

### Terminologies:

- l → Azimuthal quantum number; represents subshell and shape of orbital.

- n → Principal quantum number.

- Subshell → Division of a shell represented by s, p, d, and f.

### Usage:

- Used to determine type of subshell present in a shell.
