What is spin,what kinds of spin can electrons have and how many electrons can be in a orbital?

Solutions

Expert Solution

The spin of an electron is an intrinsic degree of freedom. Spin of an electron is a purely quantum mechanical concept with no analogue in classical mechanics unlike angular momentum of electron.

An electron can have two kinds of spin +1/2 and -1/2.

An orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons.
