Electron Configurations

A 
Represents the way electrons are arranged in atoms
Order:
1. Energy Level (1,2,3,4)
2. Sublevel/Orbital (S,P,D,F)
3. # of Electrons
36
Q

Aufbau Principle

A

Electrons enter the LOWEST energy first. Causes difficulties because of overlaps of orbitals

37
Q

Pauli Exclusion Principle

A

At most there can only be 2 Electrons per orbital and have opposite spins otherwise they would repel

38
Q

Hund’s Rule

A

When electrons occupy orbitals of equal energy, they don’t pair up with an electron yet, they get their own space and then pair up.

Q

Orbital Notation

A

The longer way to write Electron Configuration

  1. Energy Level (1,2,3,4)
