3. Periodic table Quantum mechanics Hund’s rules First rule: seek the state with highest possible spin S (lowest energy) Second rule: for given spin S, the state with highest possible angular momentum L has lowest energy Third rule: If shell no more than half filled, the state with J=L-S has lowest energy If shell more than half filled, the state with J=L+S has lowest energy
