32. A- The Aufbau principle states that electrons fill lower-energy atomic orbitals before filling higher-energy
ones (Aufbau is German for "building-up"). By following this rule, we can predict the electron
configurations for atoms or ions.
B. Pauli's Exclusion Principle states that no two electrons in the same atom can have identical values for all four of
their quantum numbers. In other words, (1) no more than two electrons can occupy the same orbital and (2) two
electrons in the same orbital must have opposite spins (Figure 46(i) and (ii)).
C. Hund's rule: every orbital in a subshell is singly occupied with one electron before any one orbital is doubly
occupied, and all electrons in singly occupied orbitals have the same spin.

Ill. Explain your answers.
1. Which of the three below is the correct orbital notation of Helium? Why do the two others are
incorrect? Cite the principle it violated.
The Pauli Exclusion Principle states that, in an atom or molecule, no two electrons can have the
same four electronic quantum numbers
2. Put check of the blank after each item if it follows the Pauli Exclusion Principle and put X if it violated the
principle and explain how it is violated.
As you can see, the 1s and 2s subshells for beryllium atoms can hold only two electrons and when
filled, the electrons must have opposite spins. Otherwise they will have the same four quantum
numbers, in violation of the Pauli Exclusion Principle.
3. Which of the following follow the Aufbau Principle, encircle the letter with red pen? Which set does not follow,
give brief explanation why?
You have two electrons in one 2p orbital, but none in the other 2p orbitals. This violates Hund's Rule:
There must be one electron with the same spin in each orbital of the same energy before you can put
two in the same orbital. The electrons in the half-filled 4d orbitals don't all have the same spin.
