Answer to Question #128087 in General Chemistry for bluet

Question

[Ar] (n-1)d⁶

Values of all spin quantum numbers for d subshell of the stem are not same-explain.

Answer 1

Solution

It is also the Pauli exclusion principle

According to this rule no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers.

Its very far that in question two electrons in (n-1) d orbitals can not have same quantum numbers but for any two electrons an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers. In d subshell magnetic quantum numbers of all the d subs hell are different. But still last quantum number (spin quantum number) can not be the same because one is in clockwise and other in anticlockwise direction
