Question 1: A. Given the following elements: N and O a) Write the electronic configuration of each atom in their Ground and Excited States b) Identify the valence electrons and the covalency numbers (GS & ES) c) Write the Lewis Dot Structure of these atoms (GS & ES) d) Identify the pure orbitals occupied by the valence electrons (GS & ES
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.
