Hello Forum, I have heard of current operating devices, like LEDs, and voltage operated devices... What is the difference? It seems to me that all electronic devices, once provided a certain voltage, draw the current they need...so what is this distinction between current operating and...

When we try to predict electronic configurations by the building up principle we add electrons to the d-orbitals before the p-orbitals for principal quantum numbers n ≥ 4. What I don't understand is why, according to my textbook, we're supposed to remove electrons from np-orbitals first, then...
