The letters s, p, d, f originate from the words sharp, principal (or primary), diffuse and fundamental. They're related to the appearance of spectral lines. It's a minor bit of historical trivia that doesn't really mean much of anything anymore. While I've never heard "polar" used, p orbitals do have a nodal plane where the wavefunction on one side is of opposite sign than the corresponding location on the other side, and it might be related to that. It's kind of misleading term, though, as it implies that it has something to do with electrical polarity which is not in fact the case.

What did Gerald Ford do before he was president?
Gerald Ford worked as a park ranger in the summer of 1936. He also worked as a male model. He went to Yale Law school, got his law degree and was admitted to the bar in 1941. He worked as a lawyer until the US entered the war and he joined the navy. Gerald Ford was a Lieutenant Commander in US Navy during WWII, 1942-1946; After the war, he became a member of the US House of Representatives for many years and became the House minority leader before being appointed Vice-President.
What is the Fullform of s-orbital p-orbital d-orbital and f-orbital?
The orbital names s, p, d, and fstand for names given to groups of lines in the spectra of the alkali metals. These line groups are called sharp, principal, diffuse, and fundamental.
What is the Maximum number of electrons into 4p orbital?
An orbital can only occupy maximum of 2 electrons. As p orbital consist of 3 orbitals. And has 3 orientations. Px, Py, Pz. So as there are 3 orbitals so p orbital can occupy at the maximum 6 electrons regardless of principle quantum no.. In 4p 4 is principle quantum no. So it represent 4p represent the p orbital of 4th shell. So it also occupy at the maximum of 6 electrons.
Why does the s orbital fill before the p orbitals?
The s orbital is lower in energy than the porbital.
How many p electrons are possible in any orbital?
6 electrons can ocupy the 2p, 3p, 4p, and so on. each p subshell has 3 orbitals, and each orbital can hold up to 2 electrons, so each p subshell can hold up to 6 electrons total.
Can p orbital hold two electrons?
Yes, a p orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, with each electron having opposite spin. This is based on the Pauli Exclusion Principle, which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers.
Is P--P polar?
P-F is Polar
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.
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 full form of p orbital?
A full p orbital contains 6 electrons.
How many ways are there to arrange 2 electrons in p-orbital and d-orbital?
In any one orbital there is only one way to arrange the two electrons and that is with opposite spin. (Paulis exlusion principle) In the 3 different p orbitals you could arrange 2 electrons without spin pairing in the same orbital in 3 ways, The middle two are the same. The same applies to d orbitals
How many electrons does oxygen have in the p orbital?
Oxygen has 2 electrons in the p orbital. Each p orbital can hold a maximum of 6 electrons, with 3 orbitals available in the p sublevel.
Is P - F polar?
P-F is Polar
