5.2 Electron Configurations Three Rules tell you how to write e­ configurations

...explain the arrangement of e­ in orbitals around nucleus 1. Aufbau Principle

2. Pauli Exclusion Principle It's all about STABILITY!! 3. Hund's Rule

Aufbau Principle Pauli Exclusion Principle e­ occupy the orbitals of lowest energy level first an atomic orbital can only describe at most 2 e­

spin (ms) must be opposite, or paired
