Why is something like Fluorine written as [tex]1s^{2}\;\;2s^{2}\;\;2p_{x}^{2}\;\;2p_{y}^{2}\;\;2p_{z}^{1}[/tex] and not [tex]1s^{2}\;\;2s^{2}\;\;2p_{x}^{2}\;\;2p_{y}^{1}\;\;2p_{z}^{2}[/tex]?
[tex]2p_{y}^{1}[/tex] and [tex]2p_{z}^{1}[/tex] should be of the same energy, right?
Or is it only a matter of convenience/convention which one we write?
