Answer:
n=2, l= 1, m= 0, s = +1/2
Explanation:
An electron is described by four sets of quantum numbers;
I) principal quantum number (n)
ii) orbital quantum number (l)
iii)Magnetic quantum number (m)
iv) Spin quantum number (s)
The electronic configuration of fluorine is; 1s2 2s2 2p5
Hence, the sixth electron of fluorine is found in the 2p subshell where;
n=2, l= 1, m= 0, s = +1/2
