Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle states that it is impossible to know both the ___________ and the __________ of a particle at the same time.

• velocity, position

• velocity, energy

• position, energy

• velocity, speed

What states that every orbital of a subshell must be singly occupied before any orbital can have a pair?

• Pauli exclusion principle

• Hund's rule

• Aufbau principle

• None of the above

This states that no two electrons will have the same 4 quantum numbers in an atom or molecule. The two electrons of the same orbital must have opposite spin states.

• Pauli exclusion principle
