Concept introduction:

Pauli Exclusion Principle

An orbital having a most two electrons and in this two electrons have opposite spins.

Each orbital having no more than two electrons and similar spin is not allowed.

Aufbau principle

The molecular orbitals are filled in the increasing order of their energies starting from lower energy to higher energy.
