Q

Why does the 4s orbital fill before the 3d orbital

Q

What are the rules by which electrons are arranged in the shell?

A
  1. Electrons are added one at a time
  2. Lowest available energy is filled first
  3. Each energy level must be filled before the next one can fill
  4. Each orbital is filled singly before pairing
  5. 4s is filled before 3d
