Ang 'principal quantum number' po ay tumutukoy sa 'principal energy level'. Kung saan ang dalawang terminologies na ito ay parehas lang ng kahulugan o 'function'. Ang energy level ay ang orbitals na mayroon ang isang atom, at ang quantum number ay ang naglalarawan kung ano/saan ang electron sa orbitals/energy levels, sa pamamagitan ng numerical value.

Principal Energy Level (n) -"shells" Indicates the relative size and energy of atomic orbitals. n=integers: n= 1, 2, 3, etc. • As n increases: > orbital becomes larger > electron spends more time farther away from nucleus > atom's energy level increases

The Principal Quantum Number (n) The principal quantum number, n, designates the principal electron shell. Because n describes the most probable distance of the electrons from the nucleus, the larger the number n is, the farther the electron is from the nucleus, the larger the size of the orbital, and the larger the atom is. n can be any positive integer starting at 1, as n=1 designates the first principal shell (the innermost shell).

The first principal shell is also called the ground state, or lowest energy state. This explains why n can not be 0 or any negative integer, because there exists no atoms with zero or a negative amount of energy levels/principal shells.

I think the answer is Principal Energy Level.

Indicates the relative size
and energy of atomic
orbitals.
