Each electron in an atom is described by four different quantum numbers. The first three (n, l, ml) specify the particular orbital of interest, and the fourth (ms) specifies how many electrons can occupy that orbital.able of Allowed Quantum Numbers. n l ml Number of orbitals Orbital Name Number of electrons 1 0 0 1 1s 2 2 0 0 1 2s 2 1 -1, 0, +1 3 2p 6 3 0 0 1 3s 2 1 -1, 0, +1 3 3p 6 2 -2, -1, 0, +1, +2 5 3d 10 4 0 0 1 4s 2 1 -1, 0, +1 3 4p 6 2 -2, -1, 0, +1, +2 5 4d 10 3 -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3 7 4f 14.
Rat droppings are a key sign of a rat infestation; the mess and debris they leave in their wake is unmistakable. In addition to scattered nesting materials; debris from chewing, feeding and gnawing; rodents excrete urine and feces every few steps they take along their habitual paths of travel.
Rats and Mice are widely spread throughout New Zealand and are often transported on trucks, in containers, and by boat. A mouse can excrete between 40-100 droppings a day and a rat 20-50 as well as up to 14 mls of urine. As a result, there are potential risks of disease and sickness such as salmonella.
