The order in which atomic orbitals are filled is based on what factor?
It is based on many factors, but the easiest to understand is ENERGY. The orbitals in which the electron has the lowest energy are filled FIRST.
What states that an electron occupies the lowest energy orbital that can receive it?
The principle that states an electron occupies the lowest energy orbital available is known as the Aufbau principle. According to this principle, electrons fill atomic orbitals in order of increasing energy levels, starting from the lowest energy level. This process continues until all the electrons are placed in the available orbitals, ensuring that the most stable electron configuration is achieved.
Who stated an Electron Must Occupy The Lowest Available Energy Orbital?
While I am not sure who stated it, that's a general tendency in nature, and not just for electrons - i.e., for systems to go to the lowest possible energy level.
Which is the lowest energy level that contains d orbitals?
The lowest energy level that has F orbitals is the fourth energy level. The Atomic orbital of any atom only contains 2 electrons.
The electron configuration for chromium is 1s22s22p63s23p63d54s1 instead of 1s22s22p63s23p63d44s1. The configuration is an exception to the .?
The electron configuration for chromium is an exception to the Aufbau principle, which states that electrons fill orbitals starting from the lowest energy level. In chromium, one electron from the 4s subshell is promoted to the 3d subshell to achieve a half-filled 3d subshell (3d^5), which provides greater stability due to electron exchange energy and symmetry. This phenomenon is observed in transition metals where electron-electron interactions influence the energy levels of orbitals.

What is the lowest level to allow f orbitals?
the lowest energy level to allow f orbitals is the fourth energy level
What is energy of electron when it is closest to the nucleus?
The energy level closest to the nucleus is the 1s orbital and can hold 2 electrons as do all s orbitals. Every electron orbital has a distinct shape and number. The 1s orbital has the same shape the 2s orbital and the 3s orbital and so forth. There are other orbital shapes such as p, d, and f. Regardless of the number or level of the orbital, all p orbitals are the same shape and all d orbitals are the same shape. Orbitals differ in distance from the nucleus and the distance is indicated by the number before the orbital shape.
The Aufbau principle states that an electron?
The Aufbau principle states that electrons must be added to elements and ions in a VERY specific order with the lowest energy level being filled first and the highest last. This is where the Aufbau triangle comes in. It shows the order in which the energy levels must be filled.
What is the area surrounding the atom where electrons are located?
Its called the electron shell. Electrons will always fill up low orbitals first in the shell, an then as more energy is added to the atom, the electrons move up an orbit, then release the energy in some form, and they move back down to the lowest energy orbit.
Do higher energy levels have higher orbitals than lower energy levels?
Yes, higher energy levels in an atom have higher orbitals than lower energy levels. Electrons in an atom occupy orbitals corresponding to their energy levels, with the lowest energy level (ground state) having the lowest orbitals.
Who stated an Electron Must Occupy The Lowest Available Energy Orbital?
While I am not sure who stated it, that's a general tendency in nature, and not just for electrons - i.e., for systems to go to the lowest possible energy level.
If Assuming all orbitals are the same in energy level which type of orbital has the lowest energy?
The s orbital has the lowest energy level.
Which is the lowest energy level that contains d orbitals?
The lowest energy level that has F orbitals is the fourth energy level. The Atomic orbital of any atom only contains 2 electrons.
What is HOMO and LUMO?
HOMO stands for highest occupied molecular orbital, representing the highest energy level at which an electron can be found in a molecule. LUMO stands for lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, representing the lowest energy level at which an electron can be promoted to in a molecule. These orbitals are important in understanding chemical reactivity and properties.
What i the lowest energy level that contains d orbits?
The lowest energy level that contains d orbitals is the third energy level. Within the third energy level, starting with the 3d sublevel, the d orbitals become available.
