IV. Electron Configuration

Electron configuration is fundamental in chemistry, detailing how electrons are distributed in an atom's orbitals. This arrangement determines an element's chemical properties and reactivity. We explore the principles of electron configuration, including the Aufbau principle, Pauli exclusion principle, and Hund's rule. By understanding electron arrangement, we can predict patterns in the periodic table, bonding behaviors, and the formation of ions. This knowledge is crucial for mastering concepts in chemistry and understanding material properties.
