Condensed electron configuration of :

Ga = [Ar] 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p¹.

O = 1s² 2s² 2p⁴

Gallium belongs to group 13 of the periodic table with 3 valence electrons. Oxygen (Atomic number = 8 and electronic configuration = 2,6) belongs to group 16 of the periodic table with 6 valence electrons. To achieve the octet stability criteria 2 gallium atoms will donate their 3 electrons each to 3 oxygen atoms.

The 3 oxygen atoms due to their high electron attracting ability will accept those electrons resulting in Ga3+ cation and O₂⁻ anion.

Thus, the formula of their compound if Ga₂O₃.

Why do scientists use models to study atoms?
umka2103 [35]
Because atoms are the small and can't be seen by your eyes. It is so small that scientists need to use a model. A model help scientists study things. So, scientists needs to study atoms using models.
