Detailed Solution

The value of n = 3 and l = 1 suggests that it is 3 p orbital while the value of m1 = 0 (magnetic quantum number) shows that the given 3 p orbital is 3pz, in nature.3pz←l=1 ↑  ←m1=0 n=3Hence, the maximum number of orbitals identified by the given quantum number is only 1, i.e. 3pz.
