There are a total of three p orbitals for an atom with principal quantum number n = 2: px, py, and pz. These orbitals are oriented along the x, y, and z axes.
The atomic states with principal quantum number 4 can have orbital angular momentum quantum numbers from -4 to 4. Hence there are 9 possible values of the orbital angular momentum quantum number. Each electron can have spin +1/2 or -1/2, so each of the states specified by a given orbital angular momentum quantum number can have at most two electrons in the state without violating Pauli's exclusion principle. So, in sum, there are 18 possible states for an electron with principal quantum number 4.
The "formula" is n2 - so for principal quantum number 4 there are 16 orbitals, correspnding to one X s orital, three X p orbitals, five X d orbitals, seven X f orbitals.
There are four quantum numbers: principal quantum number (n), azimuthal quantum number (l), magnetic quantum number (m_l), and spin quantum number (m_s). These numbers describe different properties of an electron in an atom, such as energy level, shape of the orbital, orientation in space, and spin.
Hybridization comes from very complicated Quantum Mechanics and says that as many molecular orbitals that are being combound, the exact same number of hybrid orbitals are formed. Essentially, spherical s-orbitals and somewhat ellipcitcal p-orbitals are fused to make new orbitals that are identical. Example: 4 equivalent (tetragonal) sp3-orbitals in CH4 molecules.
Four quantum numbers are required to completely specify a single atomic orbital: principal quantum number (n), azimuthal quantum number (l), magnetic quantum number (m), and spin quantum number (s). These numbers describe the size, shape, orientation, and spin of the atomic orbital, respectively.
All p sublevels contain three orbitals, including the 4p sublevel.
magnetic quantum number tells about the orientation of atomic orbitals which is actually obtained as a resolution due to the application of magnetic or electric field (stark effect).It is very significant and it has many applications
the quantum number n determines the energy of an electron in a hyrdogen atom.
There are three 4p orbitals in an atom. Each orbital can hold up to 2 electrons with opposite spins.
There can be a maximum of 8 electrons in four separate orbitals, with each orbital accommodating up to 2 electrons following the Pauli exclusion principle.
There are four orbitals in the second shell: one 2s orbital and three 2p orbitals.
