they always spin in opposite directions |
|
Rules for electrons
|
1. Subshells are filled in order of increasing energy
2. Each orbital gets one before a second adds to any orbital 3. only 2 and they have opposing spin |
|

statement of how many electrons are in each subshell |
|
Example of Electron Configuration |
# Lower case letter (s,p,d,f) followed by superscripts of the # of electrons in that subshell |

|
Why does the d row of the periodic table drop? |
Some overlap of energy levels occur beginning in shell 3 and 4 |
|
if you add all superscript or arrows the # should = |
# of electrons
|
|
