Electron Structre
Each shell is made up of orbitals, each orbital holds a maximum of 2 electrons, there are 4 different orbitals ( s,p,d,f )
- S-Orbital: Has a spherical shape, from n=1 upwards, each shell contains one S-orbital
- P-Orbital: Is a 3-D dumb-bell shape, from n=2 upwards, each shell contains 3 p-orbitals (Px, Py, Pz)
- D and F Orbitals: Has a more complex shape, d-orbital from n=3 upwards, 10 electrons, f-orbital from N=4 upwards, 14 electrons.
Electrons will have there own seperate orbital before they share.
The 4s comes after the 3p because its lower in energy levels.
When positive ions are formed, electrons are removed from the highest energy level.
