00:02 Okay, so we're talking about quantum numbers.
00:07 So the first, there are four quantum numbers.
00:09 First one is n, and this is basically like the country.
00:14 Okay, you can think of this as the size of the orbital.
00:24 Okay, so you can, i like to think of all of four quantum numbers as an electrons address, okay? and you get more and more specific, the more we go.
00:33 So if n is the country, then l, which is the shape of the orbital, is the state.
00:42 Okay.
00:45 And if l is the state, then m sub l is the city, and m sub s would be what street it lives on.
01:07 So we know that you're going more in -depth, n orbital is the size.
01:15 Okay, so we can have really, really big orbitals.
01:22 So there's the three shapes, or the s orbital, so s is a sphere.
01:28 Okay...
