Chapter 6, Problem 61QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The shapes of $s$, $p$, and $d$ orbitals are to be described and an explanation for the relationship of quantum numbers $\left(n,l,\text{ and }{m}_l\right)$ and orbitals is to be given.

Concept introduction:

A three-dimensional space in an atom where the probability of finding an electron is maximum is called an atomic orbital. Atomic orbital can accommodate only $2$ electrons. The orbitals have different shapes, like sphere, dumbbell, and double dumbbell others.
