Orbital Ordering
Will orbital ordering be different in different atoms (not the typical s, p, d, f order) or does it only differ for the two prevalent exceptions (copper and chromium)?

Re: Orbital Ordering
Orbital ordering will normally follow the s, p, d, f states unless it is in an excited state or with the copper and chromium exceptions.

Re: Orbital Ordering
Hi,
I believe the ordering will remain the same and follow the s,p,d,f order except for the exceptions of copper and chromium.

Re: Orbital Ordering
Typically, the orbitals are ordered by the lowest energy first so it would follow the s, p, d, f order, unless, as mentioned, for copper and chromium.

Re: Orbital Ordering
Copper and Chromium are the two exceptions everything else follows the usual rules.
