@Vocaloid

Vocaloid:

couple of things |dw:1538328014705:dw| carbon ~does~ have two unpaired electrons (see orbital diagram) the He atom (or any atom for that matter) will not have two parallel electrons in the same orbital. in the same orbital the electrons must occupy spins in different directions.

zarkam21:

OKay so a b and d

Vocaloid:

yes

fixed it

Vocaloid:

hm. I actually think it was closer before |dw:1538356954815:dw|

Vocaloid:

rip let me think

Vocaloid:

|dw:1538357442125:dw|

|dw:1538357447695:dw|

Vocaloid:

try moving these two to Hund's

zarkam21:

Thats correct!

zarkam21:

Can you explain why

Vocaloid:

uh it's been a while but I guess it's actually Hund's rule, not pauli's, that says that when you fill up separate orbitals with 1 electron each, those electrons have to be parallel

Vocaloid:

ok I found this "According to Hund's rule: Each orbital in a sublevel is separately occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied. [b]All of the electrons in separately occupied orbitals have an equivalent spin[/b] (to maximize total spin)." https://www.corrosionpedia.com/definition/1629/hunds-rule-valence-electrons

Vocaloid:

I actually wasn't aware about that second part until just now

zarkam21:

OH okay so they all have to be facing one direction, the ones that are in single orbitals

Vocaloid:

yes
