Atomic number of Calcium "Ca"Ca is 20.
We know that there are four quantum numbers which can be assigned to "describe" any electron in an atom. Each electron has a unique set of these four quantum numbers.
n =n= principal quantum number, which defines the energy level of the electron.
l =l= azimuthal (angular) quantum number defining the energy sub-level. Its values range from 0 " to " (n-1)0 to (n−1); 0=s, 1=p, 2=d, 3=f0=s,1=p,2=d,3=f
m(l) =m(l)= magnetic quantum number indicating orbital within a sublevel. Range from -l" through "−l through 0" to "+l to +l
m(s) =m(s)= spin quantum number. It identifies an electron within an orbital and can have either of the two values +1/2 and -1/2+12and−12
================================
The electronic configuration of calcium is:
1"s"^2; 2"s"^2, 2"p"^6; 3"s"^2, 3"p"^6; 4"s"^21s2;2s2,2p6;3s2,3p6;4s2 or ["Ar"] 4"s"^2[Ar]4s2
it is evident that the 19th19th electron goes to 4"s"4s energy level.
As such for it n=4, l=0n=4,l=0
We know that for l=0, m(l)=0l=0,m(l)=0 only.
Hence magnetic quantum number m(l)m(l) of 19th19th electron of calcium is =0=0
