The lowest energy level of 4th electronic shell of an atom is '4s' it contains 2 electrons in maximum.
An atomic orbital is a type of orbital.
The 3s orbital differs from the 2s orbital in that it is?
There is the s orbital, p orbital, d orbital and f orbital
Nothing, there is no 2d orbital. There can only be an s-orbital and a p-orbital, and there is no d-orbital until the principle quantum number, or "n" equals three, where you can have a 3d orbital. There is no 2d orbital.
an f orbital
The d orbital is the orbital that only applies to the 3rd orbital and up and it contains 10 electrons.
Molecular orbital is related to a molecule; atomic orbital is related to an atom.
The d orbital is the orbital that only applies to the 3rd orbital and up and it contains 10 electrons.
The s orbital is lower in energy than the p orbital.
The 2s orbital is the same as the 1s orbital except that it is at a higher engery level. Like the 1s orbital it is spherical in shape and can hold up to 2 electrons. Because the 2s orbital is the next highest orbital to the 1s orbital it gets 'filled' with electrons only after the 1s orbital is filled with its two.
a hybrid orbital
The orbital with the highest energy is the S orbital.
