← ScienceWhich mechanism limits electron occupation within hybridized atomic orbitals?
A)Pauli exclusion principle✓
B)Hund's rule of multiplicity
C)Aufbau principle violation
D)Heisenberg uncertainty principle
💡 Explanation
The Pauli exclusion principle dictates that no two electrons can have identical quantum numbers, therefore only two electrons with opposite spins occupy each hybridized orbital, rather than a higher number, with other rules affecting sequential filling.
