31
Q

Electrons in different orbitals with the same ms values are said to have _______ spins while electrons with opposite spins/ different ms values are referred to as ________

A

Parallel

Paired

32
Q

What is the Aufbau principle ?

A

Sub shells are filled from lowest to highest energy and each sub shell will fill completely before electrons begin to enter the next one

A

N+ l

38
Q
