How many degenerate orbitals are needed to contain six electrons with two of them unpaired?


Asked by maham237 @ in Chemistry viewed by 346 People

Answered by maham237 @



Four orbitals are needed to contain six electrons if two electrons are unpaired. According to Hund's rule, degenerate orbitals are filled evenly. Electrons minimize the force of repulsion by orbiting at a distance.
