07-Electronic Structure: Orbitals and the Auf Bau Principle
Listen now
Description
Video 7: Orbitals and the Auf Bau Principle introduces students to the concept of orbitals, energy sub-levels in the principal quantum energy levels and the fine structure of electronic configurations. Students will be able to produce electronic configurations for atoms using the Auf Bau principle, in which electrons fill orbitals in order of increasing energy.
