Thank you, however, my professor had different answers and I noticed the question specified valence electrons. Am I missing a different technique that would show the specifics for the valence electrons?
Her answers were--
a. He n=1, l= 0, ml= 0, ms=+1/2 and n=1, l= 0, ml= 0, ms=-1/2
b. V n=4, l=0, ml= 0, ms= +1/2 and n=4, l=0, ml= 0, ms= -1/2
c. Ni n=4, l=0, ml= 0, ms= +1/2 and n=4, l=0, ml= 0, ms= -1/2
d. Cu n=4, l=0, ml= 0, ms= +1/2 and n=4, l=0, ml= 0, ms= -1/2
e. Br n=4, l=0, ml = 0, ms= +1/2 and n=4, l=0, ml = 0, ms= -1/2 and n=4, l=1, ml = -1, ms= +1/2 and n=4, l=1, ml = 0, ms= +1/2 and n=4, l=1, ml = 1, ms= +1/2 and n=4, l=1, ml = -1, ms= -1/2 and n=4, l=1, ml = 0, ms= -1/2
