How many energy levels are found in an atom of carbon?
There are 2 energy levels in a Carbon atom. The first energy level consists of '1s' orbital, and the second energy level consists of the '2s' orbital and the '2p' orbital.
Why does the s orbital fill before the p orbital?
It has a lower energy level. All else being equal, electrons tend to go into the lowest energy orbital with space available.
Why is the s orbital fill before the p orbital?
The s orbital fills before the p orbital because it has lower energy, and is more stable.
If the s and p orbitals of the highest main energy level of an atom are filled with electrons then what does the atom have?
If the S orbital has two electrons and the P orbital has six you go on to the D orbital. Electron energy levels follow this format: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 4p6 4d10 and so on
Why does the s orbital before the p orbitals?
The s orbital is lower in energy than the porbital.
How is the electron able to jump through the nucleus in a p orbital?
Because of the energy levels, sublevels and the probability map
What does the s orbital fill before the p orbitals?
the s orbital is lower in energy than the p orbital

What is shape of a p orbital?
The shape of a p orbital is like a dumbbell-shaped. P orbital shapes depends on the quantum numbers affiliated with an energy state.
What is the description of the Bohr model of the atom?
Each electron in an atom is in an orbital (*NOT* an orbit!!) at a specific energy level from the positive nucleus. The energy levels of these orbitals are fixed -- an electron can go from orbital 's' to orbital 'p', but it can't go halfway between these two orbitals. When an electron in an atom goes from a higher orbital to a lower one, then the atom must give off an amount of energy, that is exactly the difference in energy in the two levels. For a hydrogen atom, these orbital levels are fixed by the fact that the angular momentum of an electron in an orbital is quantized -- ie, it comes in exact multiples, but not fractions, of a minimal amount.
What is the best description of an bohr model of an atom?

What is the energy levels?
The quantum number relating to the size and energy of an orbital
What energy level can the s orbital be found in?
Each main energy level (1 to 7) has at least an s-orbital, p-orbitals are possible from the second level onwards (2 to 7) d-orbitals from 4th level f-orbitals from 6th level
If the s and p orbitals of the highest main energy level of an atom are filled with electrons then what does the atom have?
If the S orbital has two electrons and the P orbital has six you go on to the D orbital. Electron energy levels follow this format: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 4p6 4d10 and so on
Which the lowest energy level that can have a p orbital?
2p
