In this case the order of the ion electronic states corresponds to the order of the orbital energies.
22.
For N 2 in contrast, the order of orbital energies is not identical to the order of ionization energies.
23.
The atomic orbital energy correlates with electronegativity as more electronegative atoms hold their electrons more tightly, lowering their energies.
24.
The orbital energy is directly related to the length of the semi-major axis and also to the orbital period.
25.
Due to the wide separation of orbital energies of the core levels, it is possible to select a certain atom of interest.
26.
A related quantity is the specific orbital energy which is essentially the sum of the kinetic and potential energy divided by the mass.
27.
If such objects entered the Solar System, they would have positive specific orbital energy and would be observed to have genuinely hyperbolic trajectories.
28.
As the planetesimals moved into smaller orbits, they lost orbital energy and angular momentum _ and that energy was instead absorbed by the planets.
29.
Every object in a ballistic trajectory has a constant specific orbital energy \ epsilon equal to the sum of its kinetic and potential energy:
30.
Different so-called canonicalisations can be used leading to different orbitals and different orbital energies, but the same total wavefunction, total energy, and other observables.
