What is the difference between s- orbital and s-subshell?
Asked by Kalita Padmanath | 14th Jul, 2016, 01:18: PM
Expert Answer:
Electrons that have the same value for n (the principle quantum number) are in the same shell.
Within a shell (same n), all electrons that share the same l (the angular momentum quantum number) are in the same sub-shell.
When electrons share the same n, l, and ml, we say they are in the same orbital (they have the same energy level, shape, and orientation).
