Which of the following statements is true regarding electron configuration?

  • A Electrons fill orbitals from lower to higher energy levels.
  • B Electrons fill orbitals from higher to lower energy levels.
  • C Electrons fill orbitals randomly without following any particular order.
  • D Electrons fill orbitals only when all higher energy levels are filled completely.
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

Electrons fill orbitals from lower to higher energy levels. This is known as the Aufbau principle and is based on the idea that electrons seek the most stable configuration by filling the lowest energy levels first.
