    Gallum: Z = 31

    electron configuration: [Ar] 4s^2 3d10 4s2 4p1

    Highest energy electron: 4p1

    Quantum numbers:

    n = 4, because it is the shell number

    l = 1, it corresponds to type p orbital

    ml = may be - 1, or 0, or + 1, depending on space orientation, they correspond to px, py, pz

    ms = may be - 1/2 or + 1/2, this is the spin number.
