What is the Aufbau principle in electron configuration?

Back

Electrons fill the lowest energy orbitals first before moving to higher energy levels.

Front

What is Hund's rule in electron configuration?

Back

Every orbital in a subshell is singly occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied.

Back

No two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers.
