Microscopic objects (such as electrons) have properties of both a particle and a wave. but their exact trajectories cannot be determined. The quantum mechanical model of atoms describes the 3D  position of the electron in a probabilistic manner according to a mathematical function called a wavefunction, often denoted as ψ. The squared magnitude of the wavefunction describes the distribution of the probability of finding the electron in a particular region in

The larger the value of n, the greater the energy of the electron and the larger the average distance of the electron cloud from the nucleus. The fourth quantum number, known as the "spin quantum number," refers to the intrinsic "spin" of the electron.

    Pauli didn't know at the time why each orbital holds 2 electrons, but later it was found that a fourth quantum number was needed, because strong magnetic fields split the energy of the 2 electrons in ...Pauli didn't know at the time why each orbital holds 2 electrons, but later it was found that a fourth quantum number was needed, because strong magnetic fields split the energy of the 2 electrons in one orbit into 2 different levels. (This is the basis of many important experimental techniques, especially NMR, used by chemists, and MRI, used in medical imaging.) A proposed explanation for this is that the electrons can "spin" in either direction, just like the earth spinning to give us day and…
