Orbital: The space around the nucleus in which probability of finding the electron is maximum is called orbital.
Shape is orbital
For S subshell
l=0, m=0
There is only one possible orbital this means that probability of finding the electron is same in all direction so all s orbital are sperical in shape but size of s orbital increase as principal quantum number increase.
The gap in 2s or 3s is called nodal space
This may be notice that inside the 2s and 3s orbital there is a finding the electron is zero that space is called nodal space.
Number of space in an s -orbital =(n-1)
where n is principal quantum number.
