Orbitals that have the same principal quantum number, n, are part of the same electron shell. For example, orbitals that have n = 2 are said to be in the second shell. When orbitals have the same n and l, they are in the same subshell; so orbitals that have n = 2 and l = 3 are said to be 2f orbitals, in the 2f subshell.

 

    Finally, you should keep in mind that according to the Pauli exclusion principle, no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers. This means no atomic orbital can contain more than two electrons, and if the orbital does contain two electrons, they must be of opposite spin.
