Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
1s electron orbital
1s electron orbital, computer model. An electron orbital is a region around an atomic nucleus (not seen) in which one or a pair of electrons is most likely to exist. The orbital is seen halved at right to show axes of symmetry. 1s is the lowest energy electron orbital. 1 indicates that it is the lowest energy orbital, ands indicates that it is a single, spherical orbital. The 1s orbital is filled in every element except hydrogen, in which it contains just one electron. This configuration is formally written 1s1. In the next element, helium, the 1s orbital is full, containing two electrons. This is written 1s2

Discover the intricacies of the atomic world with our Media Storehouse Poster Prints featuring the 1s Electron Orbital image from Science Photo Library. This captivating print showcases a computer-generated model of the 1s electron orbital, a region around an atomic nucleus where one electron is most likely to be located. Ideal for science enthusiasts, classrooms, or laboratories, these high-quality poster prints bring the wonders of quantum mechanics into your space, igniting curiosity and inspiring learning.
A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.
Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 56cm x 42cm (22" x 16.5")
Estimated Product Size is 59.4cm x 42cm (23.4" x 16.5")
These are individually made so all sizes are approximate

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a 1s electron orbital, represented here by a computer model. Electron orbitals are regions surrounding an atomic nucleus where electrons are most likely to exist. In this image, the orbital is halved on the right side to reveal its axes of symmetry. The 1s electron orbital holds significant importance as it represents the lowest energy level for electrons within an atom. The "1" in its name signifies its position as the lowest energy orbital, while "s" indicates that it is a single, spherical orbital. Interestingly, every element except hydrogen possesses a filled 1s electron orbital configuration. Hydrogen stands out with only one electron occupying its 1s orbital (formally written as 1s^1). Moving forward in the periodic table, helium boasts a full 1s orbital with two electrons (written as 1s^2). This mesmerizing illustration combines elements of mechanical and physical sciences to provide us with valuable insights into chemistry and quantum physics. It serves as a reminder of how fundamental these concepts are in understanding atomic structures and configurations.
