In theory, the number of electrons with each quantum number is not limited. However, for any given "main quantum number" (n), the number of electrons having the other quantum numbers is limited - but it depends on the value of "n". For more information, the Wikipedia article on "quantum number" seems to give a good overview.
There are several different quantum numbers for a given atom (principle quantum number, the angular quantum number, the magnetic quantum number, the spin quantum number, etc) .I assume you are looking for the Principle Quantum number, n, which is equal to the row (period) in the period table in which the element is situated.For helium, the principle quantum number is 1.i.e. n = 1As another example; the principle quantum number for potassium (K), n = 4.
The four quantum numbers are: Principal quantum number (n) - symbolized as "n" Azimuthal quantum number (l) - symbolized as "l" Magnetic quantum number (ml) - symbolized as "ml" Spin quantum number (ms) - symbolized as "ms"
The maximum number of electrons in a period with a principle quantum number of 4 is 32. Each period corresponds to a principal quantum number, and the number of electrons in a period can be calculated using the formula 2n^2, where n is the principal quantum number. In this case, for n=4, 2(4)^2 = 32.
The maximum number of electrons with principal quantum number 4 and angular momentum quantum number 0 would be 2 electrons. This is because for each energy level (n), there can only be one orbital (l=0) present, and each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons (with opposite spins, as per the Pauli exclusion principle).
The number of sublevels within each energy level of an atom is equal to the value of the principal quantum number (n). Each principal quantum number corresponds to one sublevel within the energy level.

"Magnetic quantum number" is a quantum number that corresponds to individual electrons, not to an entire atom.
A quantum number describes a specific property or characteristic of an electron in an atom, such as its energy level, orbital shape, orientation in space, or spin. These quantum numbers are used to specify the unique quantum state of an electron within an atom.
