Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 4

Question 4 - 25 January - Shift 2

The number of given orbitals which have electron density along the axis is

$p_x, p_y, p_z, d _{x y}, d _{y z}, d _{x z}, d _{z^{2}}, d _{x^{2}-y^{2}}$

Show Answer

Answer: (5)

Solution:

Formula: Formula

$p_x, p_y, p_z$, $d _{z^{2}}$ & $d _{x^{2}-y^{2}}$ are axial orbitals.
