Orbital Notation

Which describes Hund's Rule?

• the electrons will fill orbitals of the lowest energy first

• orbitals can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins

• you must put one electron in each equal energy orbital before doubling up

• orbitals are filled in the highest energy first

Which describes Pauli's Exclusion Principle?

• orbitals can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spins

• you must put one electron in each orbital before doubling up
