Default more on orbitals...

Hi everyone,

thanks for the answer from RobJim first.

i have found some pictures on the internet, showing what shape the elctrons move. 1s is sphere, but further on, the shapes become more and more weird to me, with couple of lobes. why they move like that?

the lobes are on x,y,z coordinates, electrons of differnet energy level seem to occupy same space when comparing them( most of them cover the origin). they share some spaces of the path?

thanks a lot. i hope that i have made myself clear. [/img]
