For each set of elements represented in this periodic table outline, identify the principal quantum number, n, and the azimuthal quantum number, ℓ, for the highest energy electrons in an atom of one of those elements.

Here are the elements

Potassium(K)
Radon(Rn)
Bohrium(Bh)
Neon(Ne)
Lanthanum(La)

Please help. Im just so lost. Ive been at this for hours and I am so confused! Thanks!
