Try it on paper first. A hint, the key idea and the worked solution are here when you need them.
Use the rule to put the orbitals , , , and in the order in which they fill.
; to (); to ; . A subshell has orbitals and a shell . Nodes: radial , angular , total . With many electrons, orbitals fill in order of , the smaller first for a tie.
Have you tried it?
Work it out on paper first. It is fine to get stuck or make a mistake: that is how we learn. When you are ready, go through the solution one step at a time, and check each step against your own.
Step 1. Values. : . : . : . : . : .
Step 2. Ties. Among : before . Among : , then , then .
Answer: .
