2) Write the full orbital diagram for a carbon atom

1. Write the ground-state electron configuration and draw an orbital diagram for a neutral atom containing 5 electrons. 2. Explain what the orbital approximation is in the context of this 5 electron atom. 3. For this atom with 5 electrons, how do the energies of the 2s and 2p subshells compare? Provide reasoning to support your answer 4. As the energies in multi-electron atoms must be approximated, explain how variational principle could be used to determine said energies.
