A Guide to Electron Configuration.

Electron Configuration
In this video Paul Andersen explains how to write out the electron configuration for atoms on the periodic table. More importantly he shows you why electrons arrange themselves in shells, subshells and orbitals by using Coulomb's law and studying the first ionization energies of different atoms Electron Configurations
Introduction to using the periodic table to determine electron configurations Chemistry - Electron Configuration (Part 1 of 2)
An introduction to orbital-sublevel arrangement and writing electron configurations. Aufbau principle is used to fill orbitals. Part 2 of this sequence discusses orbital notation and noble gas configuration. Chemistry 2.7 Electron Configuration (Part 2 of 2)
This part continues with orbital notation and noble gas configurations. Pauli Exclusion Principle and Hund's Rule are demonstrated through orbital notation.
