Questions:

1.) How is an orbital diagram different than an electron configuration? Use examples to illustrate this.

2.) What are the four quantum numbers and what do they represent?Go a step further and explain why some sets of quantum numbers are possible and some sets are not. Give some specific sets of quantum numbers and ask your fellow classmates to determine if the set given is possible.

3.) There is a very well-known principle that applies when assigning quantum numbers to electrons; have you come across the Pauli exclusion principle in your research? What does this principle state?

4.) As for Hund's rule, we often find that its applicability becomes more useful when we reach the d-block elements. Why do you think this is the case?
