Pauli's Exclusion Principle: The rule of electrons

The video explains Pauli's exclusion principle, stating that no two electrons in an atom can have identical quantum numbers. Using the hydrogen atom as an example, it describes the quantum numbers of electrons and how their arrangement affects orbital stability. The video also covers the maximum number of electrons that can occupy different orbitals, emphasizing the importance of opposite spins for stability.
