  • I have a question (sorry if my English is bad).

    What happens when one orbital is in the other? for example: we have one part of "2p" orbital on "z" line, after that, there is a "3d" orbital on "z" line, completely surrounding the "2p" in the same line. I don't understand this thing: 1st-Is the chance of finding electron bigger on the part where two orbitals are combined? 2nd- Electron cloud is negatively charged, so the two clouds would separate because of the same charge,they can not combine

  • Nice work. Well done

  • thank you! visuals help A LOT

  • Excellent work.

  • Nice guys

  • nyc... it rockd

    =

  • how scientist did discover that these are the forms of electrons' orbitals?

  • @omerta410 read about Arnold Sommerfeld and Erwin Schrödinger

  • So does this explain why some photonic radiation has different energy levels, also different velocity of wavefront radiation related to polarisation of photon wrt direction ?

  • This is very interesting.

    Are the electrons in 2s located anywhere in the entire larger sphere, or just the part that extends out past the smaller 1s sphere?

  • awesome helped me a lot...........thank u..

  • Electrons are always moving so the "spheres" represent all the places where the electrons can be.

  • so if all the electrons are just together in one place, are they not moving?

  • very nice video..

  • Aguante la FIQ

  • Nice one...........

  • nice one

  • THANK YOU! :D

  • Excellent visualization of orbitals. I show this to my students and it helps them so much. Thanks!

  • i really really love this....

  • If there are three electrons around the atom,, what could there be? 2p and 1s????????

  • @manga788

    In the ground state there will be two electrons in the 1s and one electron in the 2s.

    The general rule is that there can be at most two electrons in an orbital (each with a different spin state), and that you fill up the states in the order 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6s,...

    So to completely fill up the orbitals shown in the video you need 10 electrons: two in the 1s, two in the 2s, two in the 2px, two in the 2py, and two in the 2pz.

  • this was a good perspective

  • why do you have the y axis where the z axis shud be and vice versa?

  • @shinuito Think of the red and green arrow as the x,y on a graph, and think of blue (z) as the height. You're thinking red and blue should be x,y, but you're thinking of it the wrong way. It doesn't matter anyways; in a 3-D atom the orientation wouldn't matter as long as you define what's what.

  • @lifeDotGov Well the way we usually look at a graph, the x-axis is horizontal, the y vertical and the z axis represents the 3d sort of axis. I suppose it doesn't make too much of a difference. It seems we have just learnt it differently

  • thanks.....

  • I am not totally convinced this is what the orbits look like. I think it explains all our observations up till now but it seems to complicated for nature in my opinion.

  • @Mindbendersmith

    Recall that this is a mathematical observation of where "most LIKELY" we will find an electron. This is not race cars around an orbital track. The word "orbit" is a poor choice of words but it stuck. Electrons are more like flies in a room with random movements. You can't tell me where the fly is but you can probably predict where it will most likely hang out. The math itself simply takes a particle and uses a wave analysis to generate these probability locations.

  • @hammerofharpel

    Actually by definition, orbitals are different than orbits. The use of the word orbital DENOTES that it is a mathematical observation of where an electron is most likely to be found, and is therefore inherently different than an orbit.

  • what is the gadget (name) that is used to observe thise orbits?

  • good upload more vedios like this

  • this video really helped me in understanding the chapter "quantum theory"

  • GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

  • One of the only videos that actually shows how the higher orbitals are made up. Bloody legend :)

  • Thanks for the explanation.

  • Hund's rule said that in filling the 2p orbitals, each is singly occupied before any one is doubly occupied. Does anyone know why and how can this happen? P/S: Nice vid.

  • @be92myself it has to do with electron electron repulsion. ex. if you have a 2p^3 configuration (ex. a neutral nitrogen atom) multiple atomic states are possible for that configuration, three to be exact and each state will have an associated energy. The lowest energy atomic state known as the 'ground state', called quartet S state in ap^3 config, will have all three electrons spin up, one electron per p orbital, aka Hund's First rule, check out an atomic spectroscopy book if this interests you

  • ok clever guys. so where is the nucleus then ??

  • spectacular. would have made teaching freshman chem soooo much easier.

  • Hey, nice video. I was just wondering why these orbitals occir like this? How are they calculated? And what happens to them in bonding? Any links would be really helpful.

  • hahahahaha

  • thanx  ^^

  • beautiful animation quantum theory is hard to understand but this animation really helps
