Periodic Law
Says physical and chemical properties are periodic functions of their atomic number.
Hund's Rule
Says when a p, d, or f subshell is being filled, one electron will occupy each orbital before pairing.

Formula for the Fluoride of Nitrogen
Electron repulsion causes energy overlap between electron shells
Why the 4s orbital fills before the 3d orbital
Sulfur (S)
Smallest atom from the group of atoms
Rutherford: electrons pictured as orbiting nucleus like planets orbiting the Sun replaced because it required electrons to continually radiate energy and spiral inward until they collide with nucleus.
Bohr: electron pictured as orbiting nucleus in circular orbits with energy quantized so that only specific orbits are possible. Model replaced because it could only describe the hydrogen Spectrum. It cannot be used for atoms with more than one electron.
Born: electrons are pictured as moving unpredictably in orbital's, three dimensional regions of varying shape. The energy of electrons is quantized to values corresponding with the orbitals present in the atom.
Compare Rutherford's, Bhors, and Born's model of the atom; include a brief description of the problems that led to the replacement of Rutherford's and Bohr's models.
