    The answer for the following question is explained.

    Therefore the number of electrons present with the values n = 5, l = 2, m = - 2, s = + 1/2 is one (1).

    Explanation:

    Here;

    n represents the principal quantum number

    l represents the Azimuthal quantum number

    m represents magnetic quantum number

    s represents spin quantum number

    n = 5,

    l = 2,

    m = - 2,

    s = + 1/2

    Here, it implies 5d orbital.

    In the 5d orbital, 10 electrons.

    As the magnetic quantum number is - 2, and so it can have 1 electron.

    Therefore the number of electrons present with the values n = 5, l = 2, m = - 2, s = + 1/2 is one (1)
