Chromium violates aufbau principle. This is bcoz aufbau principle says that electrons should first b filled in orbitals hving lower energy so Cr should hav 3d4 4s2 configuration. But here 1 electron migrate and 3d5 4s1 is seen experimentally. This tends to half filled d orbitals having greater stability and greater exchange energy. Thus it violates the law. Hope u got it and pl approve if u like it.
