### 2p_x Orbital Sketch and Probability Comparison #### Visualization of the 2p_x Orbital: - **Sketch Dimensions**: The provided sketch is approximately 800 pm wide. - **Coordinate Axes**: The x, y, and z axes are indicated on the sketch. The x-axis is horizontal, the y-axis would be perpendicular to the page (not shown), and the z-axis is vertical. - **Interactivity**: The sketch can be rotated for a better view using a slider mechanism controlled by the mouse. ![2p_x Orbital Sketch](orbital_sketch.png) *(Replace this text with an actual image if available)* #### Electron Probability Comparison in a 2p_x Orbital: **Scenario**: An atom with its nucleus at the origin has an electron in a 2p_x orbital. The table compares the probability of finding the electron at point \( P_A \) relative to \( P_B \). - **Points**: - \( P_A \): 100 pm to the **left** of the nucleus, along the -x axis. - \( P_B \): 100 pm to the **right** of the nucleus, along the +x axis. - \( P_A \): 100 pm **below** the nucleus along the -z axis. - \( P_B \): 100 pm **in front** of the nucleus, along the +y axis. - \( P_A \): 100 pm **above** the nucleus, along the +z axis. - \( P_B \): 100 pm **behind** the nucleus, along the +y axis. **Decision Table**: | Point A | Point B | Compare \( P_A \) to \( P_B \) | | --- | --- | --- | | 100 pm to the left of the nucleus, along the -x axis. | 100 pm to the right of the nucleus, along the +x axis. | \( \bigcirc \) \( P_A < P_B \) <br> \( \bigcirc \) \( P_A = P_B \) <br> \( \bigcirc \) \( P_A > P_B \) | | 100 pm below the nucleus along the -z axis. | 100 pm in front of the nucleus, along the +y axis. | \( \bigcirc \) \( P_A < P_B \
