Carbon atom has electronic configuration...

Carbon atom has electronic configuration ` 1s^(2) 2s^(2)2p_(x)^(1)2p_(y)^(1)` and not `1s^(2)2s^(2)2p_(x)^(2)`. Why ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

this is according to Hund's rule which states that the degenerate orbitals are first singly filled with parallel electronic spin.
