Answer

$n=3$ and $l=1$.

Work Step by Step

*NOTES TO REMEMBER: In an orbital designation, - the number represents the value of $n$. - the letter represents the value of $l$, according to the following rule: $l=0$, the letter used is $s$. $l=1$, the letter used is $p$. $l=2$, the letter used is $d$. $l=3$, the letter used is $f$. The orbital designation is $3p$. Therefore, - $n=3$ - $l =1$
