The order in which atomic orbitals are filled is based on what factor?

The highest energy level available is based on the factor

Aufbau means "building-up." Aufbau principles determine the order in which atomic orbitals are filled as the atomic number is increased. For the hydrogen atom, the order of increasing orbital energy is given by 1s < 2s = 2p < 3s = 3p = 3d, etc. The dependence of energy on nalone leads to extensive degeneracy, which is however removed for orbitals in many-electron atoms. Thus 2s lies below 2p, as already observed in helium.

Afraidsugar lol it’s the third one
