The d and f Orbitals

Video not yet published
to the StudyWalks catalog
State

d orbitals, l = 2, and f orbitals, l = 3, have more complex, multi-lobed regions than s or p, with more nodes as l rises.

Show

A d subshell holds five orbitals; f holds seven, each set by an ml value.

Watch for

d and f orbitals' lobe count follows the nodal pattern s and p show — no new rule.
