The d-orbital which is bi-lobed with collar is represented as
Correct answer: C. dz2
- A. dxy
- B. dyz
- C. dz2
- D. dz2-y2
Explanation
The correct option is c) dz2.The d-orbital which is bi-lobed with a collar is represented by the dz2 orbital.Option a) dxy: The dxy orbital is characterized by lobes along the x and y axes, without the presence of a collar. It does not exhibit the bi-lobed structure with a collar mentioned in the question.Option b) dyz: The dyz orbital is characterized by lobes along the y and z axes, without the presence of a collar. It also does not possess the bi-lobed structure with a collar mentioned in the question.Option d) dz2-y2: The dz2-y2 orbital is characterized by two lobes along the z-axis and a nodal plane along the y-axis. It does not exhibit the specific bi-lobed structure with a collar mentioned in the question.The dz2 orbital, on the other hand, has two lobes along the z-axis and a ring-shaped collar in the xy plane. This collar is responsible for the "bi-lobed with a collar" description mentioned in the question.

About Atomic Structure
Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
