The orbital will be described with a number, followed by a letter, which may have a suffix. The number is the principal energy level.
For example 2p, principal energy level 2; 5d principal energy level 5; 1s principal energy level 1.
In the principal energy level n=4, you would find s, p, d, and f orbitals. These orbitals can hold different numbers of electrons and vary in shape and orientation within that energy level.
The number of energy levels in an atom is determined by the principal quantum number (n), with each energy level corresponding to a unique value of n. For example, when n=1, there is one energy level, n=2 has two energy levels, and so on. The formula to calculate the maximum number of energy levels within an atom is given by 2n^2.
The kinetic energy gained by the bob at ground level can be calculated using the principle of conservation of energy. The potential energy at the initial height is converted into kinetic energy at ground level. Thus, the kinetic energy gained by the bob at ground level is equal to the initial potential energy, which is calculated as mgh, where m is the mass of the bob (0.18 kg), g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2), and h is the height (45 meters). Substituting these values, we find the kinetic energy gained to be 79.38 Joules.
Classically, the electrons are in fixed orbits around the nucleus and are equidistant from each other in the same orbit, because of electronic repulsion. Quantum mechanically, their locations and speed cannot be exactly determined simultaneously. The best way to describe the configuration is electron clouds and orbitals.

Everything above absolute zero possesses thermal energy, which is the energy associated with the random motion of particles at the atomic and molecular level. This thermal energy contributes to the overall temperature of the system.
In the principal energy level n=4, you would find s, p, d, and f orbitals. These orbitals can hold different numbers of electrons and vary in shape and orientation within that energy level.
You would have to determine the electron configuration for atoms of a given element. Each s sublevel contains 1 orbital, each p sublevel contains 3 orbitals, each d sublevel contain 5 orbitals, and each f sublevel contains 7 orbitals. Click on the related link to see a periodic table that shows electron configurations for the elements.
Electrons occupy orbitals in a definite sequence, filling orbitals with lower energies first. Generally, orbitals in a lower energy level have lower energies than those in a higher energy level. But, in the third level the energy ranges of the principal energy levels begin to overlap. As a result, the 4s sublevel is lower in energy than the 3d sublevel, so it fills first.
To determine the general shape of an orbital, you need the quantum numbers associated with the electron, particularly the principal quantum number (n) and the azimuthal quantum number (l). The principal quantum number indicates the energy level and size of the orbital, while the azimuthal quantum number defines the shape (s, p, d, f). The values of l correspond to specific shapes: s orbitals are spherical, p orbitals are dumbbell-shaped, and d orbitals have more complex geometries. Additionally, the magnetic quantum number (m_l) can provide information about the orientation of the orbital within a given shape.
We find electron orbitals around an atomic nucleus. The orbitals are actually Fermi energy levels. They are not "rigid" or "fixed" structures or specific "places" around the atom's nucleus, but are areas of probability with a constant quantum mechanical "designator" that fixes their energy level. The "sum" of the energy levels in which electrons orbit forms the orbital cloud or electron cloud around the atom.
The arrangement of electrons in carbon is 1S2 2S2 2P2. Two electrons are in the first energy level, four in the second.1s2 2s2 2p2

The number of energy levels in an atom is determined by the principal quantum number (n), with each energy level corresponding to a unique value of n.

All electrons in every atom are located around the nucleus. In carbon atoms there are two electrons in the first principal energy level and four in the second.

Atomic energy level diagrams can be found online at Wikipedia and Hyperphisics. The local library may also be a good place to find examples of an atomic energy level diagram.
Energy sublevels are labeled using the following letters: s, p, d, f, g... Each sublevel has an odd number of orbitals.( You can also find out how many electrons an atom has by multiplying the orbital number by 2) Sublevel Orbitals # of e- S 1 (x2) 2 P 3 (x2) 6 D 5 (x2) 10 F 7 (x2) 14
