Shapes of D Orbitals

In Quantum Mechanics and Chemistry, an orbital is a mathematical function that depicts the wave-like behaviour of an electron pair, electron, or nucleon. Orbitals can also be known as electron orbitals or atomic orbitals. Atomic orbitals are three-dimensional regions of space surrounding an atom’s nucleus. Atoms can form covalent bonds thanks to atomic orbitals. The […]

Elements: Classification of Elements

The periodic properties of atoms are related to the fact that the elements present in the periodic table are arranged in the sequence of growing and increasing atomic numbers. All the elements in the periodic table show different trends. Moreover, we can take the help of periodic law and table formation to predict their atomic,

Elements in the Human Body

The human body is a single structure which consists of billions of smaller structures. The smallest structure of the human body is referred to as a cell. An average adult has around 30-40 trillions of cells. These cells constitute various elements. Approximately 99% of the mass of an average human body consists of mainly 11

Compounds Formed by Group 14 Elements

In the periodic table, carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), and lead (Pb) are known as group 14 or members of the carbon family in the p-block , whose external electron configuration ns2np2 is found with only two electrons in the p orbital.  If we pay attention to the radius of the elements

Calculations Involving Unit Dimensions

INTRODUCTION The smallest gathering of atoms that has the overall symmetry of a crystal, and the whole lattice is actually developed by repetition in three dimensions is named a unit. Crystalline solids display a daily and repeating pattern of constituent particles. Unit Cell Types Primitive Unit Cells Primitive Unit Cells are formed when the constituent

Aufbau Principle

According to the Aufbau Principle, electrons are filled in their ground state in sequence of increasing energies. In comparison to higher energy levels, the atomic orbital with the lowest energy level fills first. The term Aufbau is derived from a German word that meaning “to create” or “to build up.” The word n stands for

Atomic Structures of Isotopes

The same atomic number but the different mass number is a characteristic of isotopes. The structure of an atom is known as atomic structure. The atomic structures of isotopes are the arrangement of the sub-atomic particles of the isotopes of an element. Three subatomic particles of atoms are protons (positively charged), neutrons (no charge), and

Atomic Structure of Isotopes

A similar atomic number but a different mass number is a characteristic of isotopes. The structure of an atom is known as the atomic structure. The atom consists of three types of subatomic particles: protons (positively charged), neutrons (no charge) and electrons (negatively charged). The nucleus of the atom is made up of positively charged
