Answer:

Hund's rule

Explanation:

Hund's rule is defined as the rule whose first rule in the chemistry says that, for a given electronic configuration, the term which posses lowest energy has maximum multiplicity. The multiplicity is defined as the tem 2S+1, where S is the total spin angular momentum.

Therefore, the term which has lowest energy that term posses maximum number of S.

Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity: Electron present in same energy orbitals firstly they completed half orbit than start pairing.

Therefore, the energy of lowest configuration for an atom is the one having the maximum number of unpaired electron which is allowed by the Pauli principle in a particular set of degenerate orbit is called Hund's rule.

Answer: Hund’s rule

Explanation:

The lowest energy configuration for an atom is the one having the maximum number of unpaired electrons allowed by thePauli principle in a particular set of degenerate orbitals" is known as Hund's rule.

Explanation:

Pauli's Exclusion principle states that "two or more electrons can not have the same values of the set of all quantum numbers in an atom or a molecule".

So, the given statement is not Pauli's Exclusion principle.

Hund's rule states that the lowest energy configuration of an atom is that one in which the maximum number of parallel spins of the electrons are present.

The given statement is "The lowest energy configuration for an atom is the one having the maximum number of unpaired electrons allowed by the Pauli principle in a particular set of degenerate orbitals", which is same as the Hund's rule.

Thus, the given statement is Hund' rule.

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that the momentum and position of an object can not be measured exactly at the same time.

So, the given statement is not Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

Aufbau principle tells about the filling of the electrons in subshells of an atom. Therefore, the given statement is not Aufbau principle.
