How are orbitals and energy levels related?
The principal quantum number, n, designates the main energy levels occupied by electrons. The number of orbitals in an energy level is n2 (n squared), so that the first energy level, n = 1, contains 1 orbital; the second energy level, n = 2, contains 4 orbitals; the third energy level, n= 3, has 9 orbitals; and the fourth energy level, n=4, has 16 orbitals, and so on.
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
Do higher energy levels have higher orbitals than lower energy levels?
Energy levels are formed into sublevels which contain specific numbers of orbitals, each of which can contain two electrons with opposite spins. The s sublevel has 1 orbital, the p sublevel has 3 orbitals, the d sublevel has 5 orbitals, and the f sublevel has 7 orbitals.
How many orbitals are there for each level and the number of electrons?
1st energy has 1 sublevel -- 1 orbital -- 2 electrons 2nd energy level has 2 sublevels -- 4 orbitals -- 8 e- 3rd energy level has 3 sublevels -- 9 orbitals -- 18 e- 4th energy level has 4 sublevels -- 16 orbitals -- 32 e- Notice the pattern? number of orbitals = energy level squared Number of electrons = 2x number of orbitals
How are the orbitals different in sublevels of the same principal energy level?
In every atom there are principle energy levels, sub-levels and atomic orbitals. The principle energy levels are often those first taught when studying chemistry. They correspond to how close the electrons are to the nucleus. The first principle energy level is closest to the nucleus and can hold a maximum of two electrons. The second principle energy level is slightly further away from the nucleus and can hold a maximum of eight electrons. The third energy level is even further away and can hold a maximum of ten electrons. Each principle energy level is comprised of different sub-levels: s, p, d and f. The s sub-level can hold a maximum of two electrons; , p a maximum of 6; d, a maximum of 10 and f, a maximum of 14 (although the f sub-level is only present in the lanthanide and actanide series). Sub-levels all have different energies and electrons fill sub-levels in order of lowest energy to highest. The first principle energy level has one sub-level, the 1s sub-level. The second principle energy level has two sub-levels, 2s and 2p. The third principle energy level has three sub-levels, 3s 3p and 3d. (However, the 4s sub-level is filled before the 3d sub-level, which is a different matter which cannot be explained quite so simply.) Now, each sub-level is comprised of atomic orbitals which define the approximate boundaries of the electron orbit. Each orbital can hold up to two electrons, so a s sub-level has one orbital; a p sub-level has three orbitals; a d sub-level has five orbitals and a f sub-level has seven. This explanation is really quite brief as there is so much more information concerned with principle energy levels, sub-levels and atomic orbitals.

What are the names of two types of orbitals within an energy level?
Electrons orbit around the nucleus in an atom at different levels. The space between each level is referred to as an orbital.

Explain the relationship between electrons orbitals and energy levels?
Briefly:The electrons are in orbitals, each orbital can take two electrons and each electron would have an opposite spin. Orbitals can have no electrons, one electron or be filled with two electrons.Orbitals are arranged in energy levels. However, even in the same energy level different orbitals will have different energy despite being in the same main energy level.The energy level nearest the nucleus has 1 orbital: 1sThe next energy level, the second energy level has four orbitals: 2s and three p orbitals. The 2p orbitals have more energy than the 2s orbital. The third energy level has 3s x1; 3p x 3 and 3d x 5 however, the 3d orbitals have an energy which actually places them in the fourth energy level between 4s and 4p. It gets complicated.
How many orbitals are in third energy level?
