hey mate here is your answer

An orbit is a fixed path around a heavy object on which a lighter object moves due to gravitational forces or electromagnetic forces,
while an orbital is an uncertain area around the nucleus of an atom in which the probability of finding an electron is maximum.

Orbit ⏩An orbit is the gravitationally curved trajectory of an object, such as the trajectory of a planet around a star or a natural satellite around a planet. Normally, orbit refers to a regularly repeating trajectory, although it may also refer to a non-repeating trajectory.

Orbital ⏩In atomic theory and quantum mechanics, an atomic orbital is a mathematical function that describes the wave-like behavior of either one electron or a pair of electrons in an atom.
