Consider a Hydrogen atom with the electron in the n = 6 shell. What is the energy of this system? (The magnitude of the ground state energy of the Hydrogen atom is 13.6 eV.) How many subshells are in this shell? How many electron orbits are in this main shell? How many electrons would fit in this main shell?
Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explaining the structure of an atom.
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.
