Best answer

Answer: 3. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

Key idea: each quantum number gives one property of the electron or orbital.

  • \(m_l\): orientation of the orbital (III).
  • \(m_s\): orientation of electron spin (IV).
  • \(l\): shape of the orbital (I).
  • \(n\): size (and energy) of the orbital (II).

A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II: option 3.
