Question

Are electrons located in the energy level or in orbitals?

Answer 1

@matt101 in my textbook it says orbitals. However, when I search on the internet they are located in energy levels.

Answer 2

Orbitals and energy levels are kind of the same thing

Answer 3

Each energy level has certain orbitals where the electrons are found

Answer 4

Orbitals and energy levels are not the same.

Answer 5

Think out it this way. Energy levels are made up of orbitals. So electrons are in both orbitals and energy levels
