Electrons can occupy the same orbital if they have opposite what?
Electrons can occupy the same orbital if they have opposite spin motion.
Electrons can occupy the same orbital if an only if they have opposite?
Spin
As many as four electrons can occupy the same orbitals?
No - only two electrons with opposite spin can occupy the same orbital
As many as four electrons can occupy the same orbital true or false?
False. Only two electrons with opposite spins can occupy an orbital.
When can two electrons occupy the same orbital according to Pauli's exclusion principle?
If two electrons are to occupy the same orbital, they must have opposite spin.
Pauli stated in 1925 that two electrons can occupy the same orbital only if?
if they have opposite spin.
When can electrons occupy the same orbital?
only if spins are opposite: one up one down.
May two electrons occupy the same space orbital in an atom?
Two electrons can occupy the same space orbital in an atom if they have different spins. This is known as Hund's Rule.
What states that two electrons can occupy the same orbital only if they have opposite spins?
The Pauli Exclusion Principal states that two fermions (an electron is a fermion) can only occupy an orbital if they have opposite spin.
No more than two electrons in the same atom can occupy a single orbital?
The orbital that allows no more than two electrons is the s orbital. This is a spherical shaped orbital. Elements with valence electrons lying only in the s orbital are metals.
In order to occupy the same orbital two electrons must have what?
Opposite spins.
Who states that two electrons can occupy the same orbital only if they have opposite spins?
The Pauli exclusion principle. See related link.
