    The document discusses the electron configuration of atoms, which is the distribution of electrons in an atom's orbitals. It explains several principles that dictate how electrons fill orbitals, including the Aufbau principle in which electrons fill the lowest energy levels first, Pauli's exclusion principle stating that orbitals can hold two electrons with opposite spins, and Hund's rule of multiplicity where electrons occupy separate orbitals with parallel spins before pairing. A table shows the electron configurations for elements 1-18 according to these principles.

    The way in which electrons are

    distributed in the different


    orbitals around the nucleus of an
    atom is called the electron
    configuration.
    Aufbau Principle-electrons would fill
    up first the lowest energy level.
    PaulisExclusion Principle-an orbital
    hold a maximum number of two
    electrons and two electrons are
    spinning in opposite direction.
    Hunss Rule of Multiplicity-electrons
    occupy separate orbitals in the same
    subshell and with the same parallel
    spins first before pairing.
