Difference between orbits and orbitals in atomic models

[Cudi1]

Homework Statement

describe one way in which orbits are similar and two ways in which they are different

Homework Equations

N/A

The Attempt at a Solution

the differences:
first, the orbital is a 3-dimensional volume of space where the probability of finding some electron is very probable
The orbit, on the other hand, is 2-dimensional (a circle) and comes from Bohr's model.
the similarity:
an orbit is a path an electron takes around an atom and the orbital is shape resulting in the combination of all probable orbits

 

[Cudi1]

is this correct or anything that should be changed?

Hi,
i think in general you are correct.
Orbit: revolving path of electron around nucleus.
Orbital: may be a 3D space (surface, or volume).
