What are the four quantum numbers and how do you determine their values?

n: The principal quantum number. This is generally a given value.

l: The angular momentum quantum number. This value ranges from 0 -> n-1. (0 = s, 1 = p, 2 = d, 3 = f).

ml: The magnetic quantum number. This value ranges from +l to -l. 

ms: The spin quantum number. This value is either +1/2 or -1/2 for spin up and spin down respectively.

What is Hund's Rule? What is the Pauli Exclusion Principle?

Hund's Rule: You fill electrons in sub-levels by distributing them each in their own box (orbital) with upward spin until all boxes are taken. Then assign the second electron to each box with downward spin.

Pauli Exclusion Principle: No two electrons may have the same four Quantum Numbers

What is the Octet rule? Give some examples of when it does not necessarily apply.

The octet rule states that atoms are stable when they have 8 electrons in their valence shell. It doesn't always apply with groups 1-3 or with rows where n does not equal 2.
