How does 2s orbital differ from a 1s orbital?
1s and 2s orbitals differ in that 2s orbitals lie farther away from the nucleus in the next principle energy level. Other than that, they occupy the same shape of orbital, spherical, as indicated by the s.
Why electrons pairing start with only 2p orbital in P subshell?
Electrons start pairing in the 1s orbital. A 1s orbital can take two electrons, represented by 1s2.
Two electrons in the 1s orbital must have different spin quantum numbers to satisfy?
the Pauli exclusion principle
Which orbital gives an electron the greatest probability of being found close to nucleus?
The 1s orbital.
What do elements in periods have in common?
They all have a filled 1s orbital
The major difference between a 1s orbital and a 2s orbital is that?
the 2s orbital is at a higher energy level
What is the electron shell configuration or Nitrogen?
The electron configuration of nitrogen is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^3. Nitrogen has a total of seven electrons, with two in the 1s orbital, two in the 2s orbital, and three in the 2p orbital.
In which orbital does an electron in a phosphorus atom experience the greatest shielding?
1s
How many orbitals are im the first energy level?
One only - 1s.
How many outer orbital electrons are found in Sodium?
All of 11 electrons in sodium are in different electron orbitals: 2 electrons are in 1s orbital, 2 in 2s, 6 in 2p and 1 in the 3s orbital. (This last one is the so-called valence electron)
What is the lowest energy level that has f orbital?
3 answer for apex
Which orbital is the first to be filled in any atom?
the first orbital to be filled is 1s because in this orbital the negatively charged electron is closer to the positively charged nucleus than in any other orbital Quoted directly from my Chenistry Text Book ( World of Chemisty Zumdahl/Zumdahl/DeCoste , p377 McDougal Littell 2007)
