Nodal Planes

Imaginary planes in an atom or molecule where the probability of finding an electron is zero, often associated with molecular orbitals.

P Orbitals

Atomic orbitals shaped like dumbbells, consisting of regions where there's a high probability of finding an electron outside the nucleus, pivotal in chemical bonding and valence.

Highest Energy

Refers to the state of a system or particle where it possesses the maximum amount of energy compared to other possible states.

Antiaromatic

Compounds that have a cyclic, conjugated electron configuration but do not follow Huckel's rule, leading to instability.
