The principle was named by a German speaker who called it Aufbau. "Buildup" is the usual translation of Aufbauinto English.

Who stated that an electron occupies an orbital with the lowest energy level first before it will occupy a higher one?

If you are referring to the Aufbau Principle, than I believe it was the Danish physicist Niels Bohr who discovered it around 1920. However, instead of being named after a person, it came from the German phrase Aufbauprinzip which literally translates to "building-up principle."


The arrangement of an atoms electrons is known as the atoms?

The arrangement of an atom's electrons is known as the atom's electronic configuration. It describes how the electrons are distributed in the atom's orbitals according to the Aufbau principle, Pauli exclusion principle, and Hund's rule.


What are two elements with ground-state electron configurations that are well-known exceptions to the Aufbau principle?

Chromium and copper are well-known exceptions to the Aufbau principle. Chromium has an electron configuration of [Ar] 3d5 4s1 instead of the expected [Ar] 3d4 4s2, and copper has an electron configuration of [Ar] 3d10 4s1 instead of the expected [Ar] 3d9 4s2.

What are the two ways of distributing electrons?

Electrons can be distributed in an atom either in specific energy levels known as electron shells, or in sublevels within those shells called orbitals. The distribution of electrons follows the rules of the Aufbau principle, Pauli exclusion principle, and Hund's rule.

Werner Heisenberg published this principle in 1927.


Who develped a principle that says it is impossible to know both location and mass of an electron at the same time?

Werner Heisenberg developed this principle, known as the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.


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 was the principle of buoyancy?

Archimedes is credited with discovering the principle of buoyancy, known as Archimedes' principle. This principle states that the upward buoyant force on an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that the object displaces.


What is the difference between Pascal's principle and Archimedes principle?

Archimedes principle is what determines the buoyant force and pascal principle is when a force is applied to a confined fluid an increase in pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid . this relationship is known as pascal principle.
