www.chemistry.uoguelph.caThe oversimplified filling rules that we learned in first year chemistry work up to Z = 20 (calcium), but are no longer accurate for heavier elements where the energy difference between n and n+1 is smaller. 3d and 4s orbitals (K, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co Ni, Cu, Zn) In atoms (charge = 0), 4s fills first…we say that “4s is lower than 3d”
