What does the s orbital fill before the p orbitals?
the s orbital is lower in energy than the p orbital
Combination of one s orbital with one p orbital?
s orbitals are spherical, so there cannot be any angle 'between' an s orbital and a p orbital. However, each lobe of a p orbital is perpendicular (90 degrees in all directions) to the surface of an s orbital.
What types of atomic orbitals are in the second principal energy level?
An s orbital
If three electrons are available to fill three empty 2p atomic orbitals how will the electrons be distributed in the three orbitals?
One electron in each of the three p orbitals (Hund's rule)
Is an 's' orbital weaker than a 'p' orbital?
The s orbital is lower in energy than the p orbital.
What does the s orbital fill before the p orbitals?
the s orbital is lower in energy than the p orbital
Why does the s orbitals fill before the p orbitals?
The s orbital is lower in energy than the porbital.
What is the last orbital fill in bromine atom?
The last orbitals are 'p' orbitals which contain 5 electrons.
Why does the s orbital before the p orbitals?
The s orbital is lower in energy than the porbital.
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.
Why does an s orbital fill before a p orbital?
In general, electrons fill up different positions in such a way that they are in the lowest possible energy level. The orbitals closer to the nucleus have a lower energy level than the ones which are further out.

What types of atomic orbitals are in the second principal energy level?
An s orbital
How many atomic orbitals must be mixed to make the sp2 hybrid orbital?
five atomic orbitals must be mixed into one ; one s orbital; three p orbital; one d orbital, forming sp3d orbital
If three electrons are available to fill three empty 2p atomic orbitals how will the electrons be distributed in the three orbitals?
One electron in each of the three p orbitals (Hund's rule)
Why is helium stable with a different arrangement?
All noble gases have completely filled orbitals. Helium has two valence electrons and its s-orbital is full and is stable. Other noble gases have completely fill p-orbitals as the valence orbitals.
Is an 's' orbital weaker than a 'p' orbital?
The s orbital is lower in energy than the p orbital.
