A
3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10
9
Q
copper filling rule
A
fills the 4s half and the next one half so that both are half filled and more stable
10
Q
What is the s block
A
highest energy e- in an s sub shell
11
Q
what is the p block
A
highest energy e- in the p block
12
Q
if there are 4 e- filling a p sub shell how does it fll
A
one has a full orbital and the others are half filled as this his more stable
