Discuss the shapes of d orbitals.

Answer»

Solution :d - orbitals :
For .d. orbital 1 = 2 and the corresponding m values are -2, -1, 0, + 1, +2.
The SHAPE of the d orbital looks LIKE a .clover leaf..
The FIVE m value gives rise to five d orbitals namely `d_(xy), d_(yz) , d_(zy), d_(x^2 - y^2) and d_z^2`
The 3d orbitals contain two nodal PLANES.
