How nature of orbitals affect ionization energy?

complexity of shapes of orbitals lead to increase in ionization energy. s orbital is spherical in shape, there is an equal tendency of finding an electron anywhere in the sphere so electron can easily be removed from gaseous atom. hence, ionization energy will be low. while in p orbitals dumb-bell shape provides a bit difficulty to occur electron everywhere with equal probability so it will lead to an increase in ionization energy.


How many orbital shapes can exist in the 3rd energy level?

principal energy level (n)= 3 Number of orbitals per level(n2)= 9 it equals 9 because it is n2 (32=9) n=1. 1 orbital n=2. 4 orbitals n=3. 9 orbitals n=4. 16 orbitals n=5. 25 orbitals n=6. 36 orbitalsn=7. 49 orbitals


Shapes of electorn orbitals are determined by?

By azimuthal quantum numbers.


How rifting and accretion change the shapes of continents?

they can increase or move the size of the continents


Shape of sublevels?

's' orbitals are spherical. 'p' orbitals are peanut shaped. 'd' orbitals are like two 'p' orbitals crossing each other. and 'f' orbitals...well there are a ton of shapes that they can be...my chem teacher just describes them as weird


What is concept of hybridization?

hybridization is defined as the intermixing of different orbitals with different energies to form a new set of orbitals with equivalent energies and shapes


How is the shape of an electron cloud determined?

It is a surface of constant probability i.e. an electron is just as likely to be found in a small volume anywhere around this surface. Energy sublevel


What is the shape of atom orbit?

The "s" orbital is circular; the "p" orbital is shaped like a dumbell. The "d" orbitals are like a double dumbell, though the dz2 sub orbital is like a dumbell with an annulus around it. Finally, the f orbital are much more complex. They are like a quadruple dumbell with the lobes pointing towards the 8 corners of a cube.


What is the definition for Quantum mechanical model?

it is a model that uses complex shapes of orbitals (electron clouds).


What is energy of electron when it is closest to the nucleus?

The energy level closest to the nucleus is the 1s orbital and can hold 2 electrons as do all s orbitals. Every electron orbital has a distinct shape and number. The 1s orbital has the same shape the 2s orbital and the 3s orbital and so forth. There are other orbital shapes such as p, d, and f. Regardless of the number or level of the orbital, all p orbitals are the same shape and all d orbitals are the same shape. Orbitals differ in distance from the nucleus and the distance is indicated by the number before the orbital shape.


What are the two properties of orbitals in which chemists are most interested?

Their energies and their shapes. This is Mr. Orensky from TAS. This better not be one of my students asking this!


What shape are p orbitals?

It is shaped like a dumbell but has two lobes rather than 1.
