Orbit vs Orbital key differences. Clear Explanation for Students

  Most of the students are confusing to understand the key differences between orbit and orbital. Orbit: Orbit is a circular path in which electron is  revolving around the nucleus. It represents 2-D motion of an electron. It has no directional properties.  Maximum number of electrons can be accommodated in an orbit is  2n². According […]

The radius of the 2nd orbit of Li²⁺ is x. The expected radius of the 3rd orbit of Be³⁺ is (a) 9/4 × x (b) 4/9 × x (c) 27/16 × x (d) 16/27 × x

Correct answer :(C)orbit   The Bohr radius   is defined as the distance between the nucleus and the outermost electron in hydrogen atom in its ground state. It represents the distance between the nucleus and electron in hydrogen’s ground state (n=1), It approximately equal to 0.529 Å. Information about orbit : orbit represents a fixed circular […]
