Q

What the shape of s orbital

A

Spherical

17
Q

What are the 2 electrons doing on the s orbital

A

Repelling eachother

18
Q

What shape is p orbital

A

Dumbbell

19
Q

What’s the aufbau principle

A

Lowest energy levels are filled first

20
Q

What’s the anomaly between energy levels that are filled first

A

4s is filled before 3d as it is at a lower energy level

21
Q

What’s the largest electron configuration

A

36Kr

22
Q

What’s Hund’s rule

A

In a set of orbitals of equal energy, the electrons will singly fill up these orbitals before pairing up with the opposite spins

23
Q

What 2 things allow us to find the electronic configuration of all elements

A

Hund’s rule

Aufbau principle

24
Q

What notation is sometimes used for electron configuration

A

Groups 3-8

28
Q

What elements are in d-block

A

Transition metals (between groups 2&3)

29
Q

Why does 3d fill before 4s

A

It’s in lower energy
