1.  What is the shape of an s orbital?

• sphere
• dumbbell
• double dumbbell
• TOO COMPLEX TO KNOW IT.

What is the shape of a p orbital?

• sphere
• it's just too complex to thing about it
• dumbbell
• I don't know this stuff.

How likely is it that an electron occupying a p or a d orbital would be found very near an atom’s nucleus? 

• likely...that's where you find it
• not likely
• not likely, but there is a f orbital near the nucleus
• what's near the orbital
