Four blocks of elements in a periodic table refer to various atomic orbitals being filled. What are the four blocks and the corresponding orbitals? How do you get the energy ordering of the atomic orbitals from the periodic table? What is the Aufbau principle? There are two common exceptions to the ground-state electron configuration for the elements 1-36 as predicted by the periodic table. What are they?
