Electron Orbitals

Brian Johnson

About this app

Orbitals are the states that electrons occupy in atoms. The size and shape of each orbital, and their enumeration, gives insight into the periodic table, chemical bonding, and quantum mechanics. Electron Orbitals is an interactive tool for visually studying these states. Includes all orbitals up to energy level 12.

Ratings and reviews

Very interesting stuff.. But i feel like this is limited, to the diversity of the universe, perhaps orbitals larger than 8 exist.. Just unidiscovered, could you please go up to 10 atleast in an update? I dont mind if the visual looks bizarre, good job 👍

Well its a very good app. But I have some suggestions. Can you add a feature to make the orbitals sharped shaped and draw lines to its corresponding orbital to make it easier to understand for beginners.

Nice and simple. Well done. No complaining from me. And to anyone who would complain, what do you want? It's free, no ads, does exactly what you expect it to do, and works well. Sorry I just had to throw that in because I actually saw a couple comments that had little rediculous nit picky things in them.

What’s new

Minor improvement in how the axes look. Recent changes: added a pause button for stopping the color rotation; this app is now open source; improvements in edge-to-edge design, energy levels up to 12, added coordinate axes, updated for Android 15, and color blind modes.
