What are the difference between orbit and orbitals
Answers
orbit
it is a definite circular path at a definite distance from the nucleus in which electron moves.
An orbit shows an exact position of an electron in an atom.
It is based on particle nature of electron.
These are denoted by K,L ,M,N etc.
: Orbitals:
It is a space around the nucleus within which the probability of finding an electron with a certain energy is maximum (95%) is called orbital.
orbital does not specify exact position of an electron.
It is based on wave nature of electron.
These are denoted by s,p,d,f etc
HEYA MATE HERE U GO
An orbit is a well defined path of electron that revolve around the nucleus.
an orbital is the space around the nucleus where the probability of finding electrons is maximum.
