The s orbitals, though spherically symmetric, have radially placed wave-nodes for n > 1. Only s orbitals invariably have a center anti-node; the other types never do. Simple pictures showing orbital shapes are intended to describe the angular forms of regions in space where the electrons occupying the orbital are likely to be found.
The oxygen atomic orbitals are labeled according to their symmetry as a 1 for the 2s orbital and b 1 (2p x), b 2 (2p y) and a 1 (2p z) for the three 2p orbitals. The two hydrogen 1s orbitals are premixed to form a 1 (σ) and b 2 (σ*) MO. Mixing takes place between same-symmetry orbitals of comparable energy resulting a new set of MO's for water:

A molecular orbital (MO) can be used to represent the regions in a molecule where an electron occupying that orbital is likely to be found. Molecular orbitals are approximate solutions to the Schrödinger equation for the electrons in the electric field of the molecule's atomic nuclei. However calculating the orbitals directly from this ...
In each term of an electron configuration, n is the positive integer that precedes each orbital letter (helium's electron configuration is 1s 2, therefore n = 1, and the orbital contains two electrons). An atom's nth electron shell can accommodate 2n 2 electrons. For example, the first shell can accommodate two electrons, the second shell eight ...

The s-block, with the s standing for "sharp" and azimuthal quantum number 0, is on the left side of the conventional periodic table and is composed of elements from the first two columns plus one element in the rightmost column, the nonmetals hydrogen and helium and the alkali metals (in group 1) and alkaline earth metals (group 2).
