A particle with ____________ obeys the Pauli exclusion principle.
A)zero rest mass
B)very high energy
C)half-integral spin
D)integral spin
E)charm

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Pauli exclusion principle is a quantum mechanical principle that states that no two identical fermions (particles with half-integral spin, such as electrons) can occupy the same quantum state simultaneously. Therefore, a particle with half-integral spin (such as electrons, protons, and neutrons) obeys the Pauli exclusion principle. The other answer choices are not related to the Pauli exclusion principle.
