#1
Front (Question)

What is a shell

Back (Answer)

A shell is an energy level, comprised of sub shells called s p d f. The shell number is called the principal quantum number ‘n’

#2
Front (Question)

What is an Atomic Orbital

Back (Answer)

A region around the nucleus that can hold up to two electrons with opposite spins

#3
Front (Question)

What shape are s orbitals

Back (Answer)

The electron cloud is within the shape of a sphere

#4
Front (Question)

As the shell number ‘n’ increases, what happens to the radius of its s-orbital

Back (Answer)

It increases
