400

True or False: In Hund's rules, electrons with the same spin can occupy the same orbital 

False because electrons with the same spin repel each other because of its negative charge.

How does the electron configuration of an element relate to its position on the periodic table?

Coefficient: tells what period it's in 

Orbital: tells the block

The electrons added up represents the atomic number of the element.
