Orbital shapes are conic sections.
A closed orbit is elliptical. That can include circular, but that's very unlikely, since the circle
is just an ellipse whose foci happen to exactly coincide.
An open orbit is hyperbolic. It can also be parabolic, but that's very unlikely, since the parabola
is just the exact boundary condition between closed and open orbits.
How many atoms / electron clouds does helium have ?
The Specific orbital the electron is in
An electron orbital describes the probable location of an electron within an atom. It represents the three-dimensional region where an electron is most likely to be found, based on the electron's energy level, shape, and orientation within the atom. Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins.
one electron in the 5s orbital
The electron configuration for carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2. Carbon has 6 electrons, with 2 in the 1s orbital, 2 in the 2s orbital, and 2 in the 2p orbital (1 electron each in 2p_x and 2p_y).
An electron in a 2s orbital is on average closer to the nucleus.
How many atoms / electron clouds does helium have ?
Orbital describes space where electron is found. it provides probability for the presence of electron.
The electron orbital pattern of boron is 1s2 2s2 2p1. This means it has 2 electrons in the 1s orbital, 2 electrons in the 2s orbital, and 1 electron in the 2p orbital.
The orbital angular momentum of an electron in orbitals is a measure of its rotational motion around the nucleus. It is quantized and depends on the specific orbital the electron is in.
An electron is transferred from the 2s orbital of a lithium atom to create a Li+ ion.
The Specific orbital the electron is in
An electron cloud is an atomic orbital.
2 ELECTRONS in one orbital. (An electron can only be in one orbital at once)
An electron orbital describes the probable location of an electron within an atom. It represents the three-dimensional region where an electron is most likely to be found, based on the electron's energy level, shape, and orientation within the atom. Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins.
there r 2 electrons in the s orbital, their r 6 electrons in p orbital , their r 10 electron's in the d orbital and 14 electrons in f orbital.
A wave function describes the behavior of an electron in an atom. An orbital represents a region in space where there is a high probability of finding an electron. The wave function is used to calculate the probability density of an electron in an orbital.
