Question

What are the three rules for writing electron configurations (order of filling)?
Options
A Octet rule, VSEPR, Lewis theory
B Aufbau principle, Pauli exclusion principle, Hund's rule
Correct Answer
C Coulomb's law, Newton's law, Boyle's law
D Markovnikov's rule, Zaitsev's rule, Hammond's postulate
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

The three fundamental rules for electron configuration are: Aufbau (fill lowest energy first), Pauli (no two electrons same quantum numbers), and Hund (maximize spin before pairing).

Hint

Fill, exclude, maximize.
