  3. Answer
    singly
    Choices
    1. singly
    2. doubly
    3. never
Complete the statement
The {0} principle says no two electrons in an atom may share the same set of four quantum numbers. {1} rule says pairing does not begin until every orbital of the subshell is {2} occupied.
Both rules together produce the electronic structure of the atom. Source: syllabus Chemistry Part I, Ch 2 Structure of Atom.
