There exist several two- and three-dimensional graphical representations of hydrogen-like orbitals. Despite this, connecting the mathematical form of the atomic orbital, a function of both radial and angular variables, to its actual shape is often challenging for students. Here, we present a new graphical representation using bubble plots to show the combined contribution of the radial and angular parts of the wave function to its shape. This representation can be demonstrated on the blackboard, as well as easily plotted by students. Additionally, it is one step away from contour plots of orbitals, which are commonly used in their depiction.

水生轨道的图形表示：包含波函数的径向和角部分

存在氢样轨道的几个二维和三维图形表示。尽管如此，将原子轨道的数学形式（径向和角度变量的函数）连接到其实际形状对于学生来说通常是挑战。在这里，我们使用气泡图展示了一种新的图形表示形式，以显示波动函数的径向和角度部分对其形状的组合贡献。这种表示形式可以在黑板上演示，也可以很容易地被学生绘制。此外，它与通常在描绘中使用的轨道轮廓图只有一步之遥。
