Orbital Diagrams, Rules and Principles

An electron occupies the lowest energy orbital that can receive it.

• Hund’s rule
• Pauli exclusion principle
• Bohr model of the atom
• Aufbau principle

All orbitals of equal energy are occupied by one electron before any single orbital is occupied by a second electron.

• Aufbau principle
• Pauli exclusion principle
• Hund’s rule
• Core Notation
