Inorganic Chemistry I
The spin quantum number is a fundamental property of electrons that describes their intrinsic angular momentum, denoted as 's'. This number can take on values of +1/2 or -1/2, indicating the two possible orientations of an electron's spin. Understanding the spin quantum number is essential for determining how electrons fill atomic orbitals and influences the overall electron configuration of an atom.
