Schrodinger wave equation give the information about n -principal quantum number-l -angular quantum number- and m -magnetic quantum number- but s -this is called the spin quantum number - that describe the angular momentum of an electron is given by-xA0-Wolfgang Pauli-

Schrodinger wave equation give the information about n (principal quantum number),l (angular quantum number) and m (magnetic quantum number) but s (this is called the spin quantum number ) that describe the angular momentum of an electron is given by Wolfgang Pauli.
