Are we supposed to know how to draw/or identify what different orbitals look like? I remember briefly drawing them in lecture in week 3 or first lecture of week 4, but don't remember what was said about them? Just curious...

I believe we should be able to identify and draw different orbital according to information given about the planes and quantum values (n,l and m)

I agree that it seems like we should be able to recognize and understand the basics of drawing orbitals, but only in as much detail as we went over in class

I think that if you can draw the general shapes of the orbitals you should be good, such as what an s, p, or d orbital would look like on axes.
