wiki Word: Orbitals |
Definition: the possible quantum states of an individual electron in the electron cloud around a single atom
|
|
The orbital names (s, p, d, f, g, h,...) are derived from the characteristics of their spectroscopic lines: sharp, principal, diffuse and fundamental. The rest are named in alphabetical order.

|
An example of an orbital path. |

SO WHAT??? SECTION: Why are we studying this term? Why do you need to understand this word to be sucessful in science? How does this term apply to any of our class labs or the real world?
