The first energy level to have d-orbitals is:

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

Electrons that have not been excited by additional energy are said to be at:

• low level

• set state

• baseline

• ground state

What is untrue about f orbitals?

• first found at energy level 4

• when all f orbitals of a given energy level are full, they may contain up to 14 electrons

• there are 5 different orientations, or axes

• each f orbital may hold an electron with a +1/2 spin and a -1/2 spin

This shape is that of a/n:

• s orbital

• p orbital

• d orbital

• f orbital

The difference between an orbit and an orbital is:

• an orbit is a set path, but an orbital has no dimension

• an orbital is a set path, but an orbit cannot be defined

• an orbit is a set path, but an orbital is a 3-dimensional region in which electrons may be found with high probability

• there is no difference when it comes to electron configurations

orbital sublevels, or l, implies:

• orbital color

• electron spin

• orbital shape

• energy level
