Orbit is a well defined circular path around the nucleus in which electrons revolve.

It is two dimensional

No of electrons in an orbit is according to 2n^2

It is according to Bohr model.

: ORBITAL

region around the nucleus where probability of finding electron is maximum.

It is 3 dimensional

Different orbital have different shape

According to Heisenberg uncertainty and wave nature.
