What is the pricipal quantum number?

Symbolized by n , indicates the main energy level occupied by the electron. ( positive intergers only )

What are the principal quantum number shells?

Orbitals around a nucleus

What information is given by the angular momentum quantum number?

Shape of an orbital

What information in given by the magnetic quantum number ?

Indicates the orientation of an orbital around the nucleus

What information is given by the spin quantum number ?

Indicate the two fundamental spin states of an electron in an orbital

Aufbau principle

an electron occupies the lowest-energy orbital that can receive it

Hund's rule

orbitals of equal energy are each occupied by one electron before any orbital is occupied by a second electron, and all electrons in singly occupied orbitals must have the same spin

Pauli exclusion principle

no two electrons in the same atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers
