Explanation:
The arrangement of electrons in an atom is called Electron Configuration. Electrons in an atom tend to assume the arrangement that gives the atom the Lowest possible energy. This arrangement of electrons is the most. A stable arrangement is called the atom’s Ground-state electron configuration. Three rules define how electrons can be arranged in an atom’s orbitals. The Aufbau principle states that each electron occupies the lowest energy orbital available. Pauli exclusion principle states that a maximum of 2 electrons may occupy a single atomic orbital, but only if the electrons have opposite Spin. And Hund's rule states that single electrons with the same spin must occupy each equal-energy orbital before additional electrons with opposite spins occupy the same orbitals.
