1s, 2s and 3s orbitals Click the above images to view representions of the electron distributions corresponding to the 1s, 2s and 3s orbitals. These orbitals are all spherically symmetric, and in each the single electron may be found at the nucleus in the centre. The density of colouration indicates the positions where the electron is likely to be found on any plane cutting through the nucleus. |
