How do you find m sub l on the periodic table?

Answer 1

The M tells you which row of the Periodic Table you can find the element in, and the L tells you which suborbital the electron is found in. The suborbital signifies how many electrons are in the shell of the element.

Answer 2

The magnetic quantum number (magnetic spin quantum number), denoted by m_l, can be found by looking at the possible values for l, the azimuthal quantum number. The values for m_l can range from -l to +l, including 0. For example, if l=1 (p orbital), m_l can be -1, 0, or +1.
