Question

The ${}^{\prime }{d}^{\prime }$-orbital having maximum electron density along two axes is:

• A. $d_{x^2-y^2}$
• B. $d_{z^2}$
• C. $d_{xy}$
• D. $d_{yz}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $d_{x^2-y^2}$

The ${}^{\prime }{d}^{\prime }$-orbital having maximum electron density along two axes is $d_{x^2-y^2}$.
