Question

difference b/w orbit and orbital?

Answer 1

An orbit is a circular fixed path around the nucleus.

An orbital is the space ( three dimentional ) around the nucleus where there is a high probability of finding electron.

Answer 2

i hav nt understood can u draw the pic

Answer 3

hey can u draw it @naf

Answer 4

orbit is called shell which is large compared to orbital!!
orbital is called subshell!!!
sub shells are present in a big shell!!
the probability of finding electron in subbshell is more than in shell!!!!
for example in 2nd orbit or K shell
there are 2 orbitals namely S and P
if electrons are present in this k shell then finding it in either of S and p orbital is more probable!!!

Answer 5

These are orbits
