distance from the nucleus

Electron Configurations and Orbital Diagrams
Rules for Assigning Electrons to Various Shells, Subshells, and

Orbitals
1. Electron subshells are filled in order of
increasing energy
2. Electrons occupy the orbitals of a subshell such
that each orbital acquires one electron before
any orbital acquires a second electron
– All electrons in such singly occupied orbitals must
have the same spin
3. No more than two electrons may exist in a
given orbital
– Only if they have opposite spins
