11) According to the pauli's exclusion principle no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of all the four quantum numbers, i.e., an orbital cannot have more than 2 electrons and the three quantum numbers [principal (n), azimuthal (l) and magnetic quantum number (m) at the most may be same but the fourth [spin quantum number(s)] must be different, i.e. their spins must be in opposite directions.
