Question

The figure is a 3-dimensional representation of an atomic orbital. Which orbital does it represent?

1. three d-orbital
2. a single p-orbital
3. three p-orbitals
4. an s-orbital

Answer 1

three p orbitals, p_x, p_y, and p_z

Search for 'shapes of the orbitals', and you'll see the p orbitals look like an infinity symbol. There's one on each axis, x, y, and z. This is all of them on top of each other, basically.
