What are the different atomic orbitals?
You can break down the shell and orbitals of an atom on several levels of detail.First, there are the main shells of the atom, and these are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. (or like some doing it alphabetically K, L, M, N, ...).In the periodic table you will encounter them as seven periods.Each shell holds orbitals (sometimes called sub-shells, but they are not), and different shells have different numbers of orbitals associated with it. The higher the number of the main shell, the more orbitals it contains. In fact, the number of the main shell is equal to the number of orbitals it contains. The types of orbitals are labeled like this: s, p, d, f, and not so very important: g, h, i, etc (alphabetically after i).So far we have:Main shell #1-- contains one orbital (s-orbital)Main shell #2-- contains two orbitals (s-orbital, and p-orbital)Main shell #3-- contains three orbitals (s-orbital, p-orbital, and d-orbital)Main shell #4-- contains four orbitals (s-orbital, p-orbital, d-orbital, and f-orbital)etc...Now we can further break down orbitals! The p-orbital is actually composed of three sub-orbitals and the d-orbital is composed of 5 sub-orbitals and f-orbital in 7 sub-orbitals.So we have:s-orbital: just a single orbital, called just the s-orbitalp-orbitals: composed of 3 sub-orbitals, called the px-, py-, and pz-orbitalsd-orbitals: composed of 5 sub-orbitals, called the dxy-, dxz-, dyz-, dx2-y2, and dz2-orbtialsf-orbitals: composed of 7 sub-orbitals, called fz3, fxz2, fyz2, fxyz, fz(x2-y2), fx(x2-3y2), fy(3x2-y2).etc...And at last, but not least: each sub-orbital has a maximum of TWO electrons in it, only differing in electron spin number.So the maxima per orbital are:s-orbital: just a single orbital, max. 2 electronsp-orbitals: composed of 3 sub-orbitals, max. 6 electronsd-orbitals: composed of 5 sub-orbitals, max. 10 electrons (= number of transitional elements)f-orbitals: composed of 7 sub-orbitals, max. 14 electrons (= number of lanthanides, actinides)(Thanks to JEK, who's original answer I completed with the last paragraph and some minor add's in the first ones)
What is the bond order of Li2?
The bond order of Li2 is 2. As of 2018, the literature has not yet reached a consensus regarding the bond order of lithium. Several groups have reported values ranging from 1 to 2. A 2015 paper by K. C. Visweswara rao an D. P. Somasundaram in Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics reports a bond order of 2 based on molecular dynamics simulations. In 2017, the same authors published a follow-up paper in Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, in which they report a bond order of 1 based on ab initio calculations. A 2017 paper by P. M. Roterman and coworkers in The Journal of Chemical Physics reports a bond order of 2 based on theory and experiment combined. In 2018, E. Duru and coworkers also report a bond order of 2 based on ab initio calculations in The Journal of Physical Chemistry C
Spectral lines of the lyman and balmer series do not overlap?
so when an electron moves from an excited state to a ground state and photon with a discrete wavelength is emitted. this photon has a specific energy according to the energy between the excited and ground state. E = (1/nf2 - 1/ni2)A = hv where is A is a constant, but in this question is unimportant. h= planks constant v=frequency (should be a greek symbol) nf and ni are the electronic states. now to answer your question the lyman series is when nf is the ground state or nf =1 balmer series is when nf =2 when nf is 1 the value in the quantity above can range from ni from 2 to infinity giving values between 1 and 1/2 for the balmer series ni goes from 3 to infinity and values range between 1/4 and 5/36 these intervals dont overlap therefore the energies dont overlap therefore the lines in the series cant overlap
Which elements have several properties?
All elements have several properties.
Ground state electron configuration for arsenic?
The electron configuration of arsenic (At) is 4s2 3d10 4p3.The electron configuration of arsenic allows it to combine in several different valances, including -3, 0, +3 and +5. It combines with other elements, including hydrogen, oxygen, the halogens and sulfur.Many of these compounds are extremely poisonous. Arsenic (III) oxide, white arsenic is one of the most well-known. In dilute concentrations, too weak to be poisonous, arsenic is a carcinogen, according to Reference.com.

Do Bengal tigers live in solitary?
Tigers are solitary animals. A males range will overlap several females.
Is there a difference between Himalayan and Indian?
Yes. The Himalayas are to the North of India and overlap with several other countries.
Does mode and model mean the same thing?
No, they do not. Each of them has several meanings, and I can't think of any overlap between any of them.
What is the meaning of the title C.G.H?
There are several meaning to the title C.G.H. It can stand for Comparative Genomic hybridization. There is also CGH Medical Center which stands for Community General Hospital.
How do they complete incomplete finger prints?
Ususally, they don't. But if the parts overlap, sometimes several incomplete prints can be patched together to form a whole.
What size awning do you need for a 32 wide door?
You need one that will cover your 32 inch door with an overlap of several inches on each side.
What are 3 equivalent fractions to for four 23rds?
If you multiply top and bottom of a fraction by any non-zero number, you get an equivalent fraction. Do this with several numbers (such as 2, 3, and 4), and you get several equivalent fractions.
What are the postulates of molecular orbit theory?
Molecular Orbital Theory (MOT):•Basic idea of MOT is that atomic orbitals of individual atoms combine toform molecular orbitals. Electrons in molecule are present in themolecular orbitals which are associated with several nuclei.•The molecular orbital formed by the addition of atomic orbitals is calledthe bonding molecular orbital (s ).•The molecular orbital formed by the subtraction of atomic orbital is calledanti-bonding molecular orbital (s*).•The sigma (s ) molecular orbitals are symmetrical around the bond-axiswhile pi (p ) molecular orbitals are not symmetrical.•Sequence of energy levels of molecular orbitals changes for diatomicmolecules like Li2, Be2, B2, C2, N2 is 1s < *1s < 2s< *2s < ( 2px = 2py)

Is a leopard solitary or found in groups?
yes, except for brief times during mating and when the female is rearing her young, the leopard leads a solitary life within a defined territory. they mark their territories with urine, and those of males tend to have large areas that overlap those of several females', but males territories never overlap over other males.
