What do the s, p, d and f orbital’s look like?

 What do the s, p, d and f orbital’s look like?

we represent a volume of space within which an electron would have a certain probability of being based on particular energy states and atoms.  For example, in a simple lowest-energy state hydrogen atom, the electrons are most likely to be found within a sphere around the nucleus of an atom. In a higher energy state, the shapes become lobes and rings, due to the interaction of the quantum effects between the different atomic particles.
