Bruce Avila · Answer 1

Orbital

Explanation:

Orbital:

This is the region around the nucleus where the probability of finding an electron is more. Orbital is a mathematical function. This function shows properties like wave. The orbitals like s, p d and f are the mostly filled orbitals. The atomic orbitals allows all the atoms to make covalent bond with the other atoms.

So the answer is 'orbital'.
