electron
configuration
is the distribution of
electrons
of an atom or molecule in
atomic
or
molecular
orbitals
electron
configuration
describes atoms as each moving
independently
in an orbital
the four sublevels in electron configuration are
s
,
p
, d,
and f
maximum number of orbitals:
s =
1
p =
3
d =
5
f =
7
maximum no. of electrons:
s =
2
p =
6
d =
10
f =
14
orbital
describes the specific
distribution
of electrons
pauli exclusion
principle - only
two
electrons with
opposite
spins can occupy an
orbital
; no
two
electrons can have the
same
quantum number
aufbau principle - electrons orbiting atoms fill the
lowest energy levels
before filling the
higher
ones
hund's rule
- electrons fill all orbitals before pairing with an opposite-spinning electron
valence
electron - electrons in the
outermost
shell of an atom
