Answer:

Atomic elements exist with a single atom as their basic unit.

H, F, and P are some examples of atomic elements.

H2, F2, and P4 are some examples of molecular elements.

Molecular elements have more than one atom in their basic unit.

Explanation:

Atomic element exists as the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. They exist with a single atom as their basic unit. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the atomic nucleus of the element. Atomic elements are usually monoatomic such as H, F and P.

Molecular elements are the smallest particle that are capable of independent existence and still retains the chemical properties of those substances. They are capable of independent existence because they are diatomic. The combination of atoms of the same type produces a molecule of an element such as H₂, F₂, and P₂.

Draw the lewis structure of the hypochlorite ion clo- . include lone pairs
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Solution:- Hypochlorite ion ClO^- has one Cl and one O atom. Cl has 7 valence electrons and O has 6 valence electrons. Since there is one negative charge on the ion,

total valence electrons = 7 + 6 +1 = 14

(note:- if there is negative charge then it is added  and if there is positive charge then it is subtracted while calculating the valence electrons)

Both Cl and O atoms wants to complete their octet and so for this we put a single bond between them. Single bond means two electrons, so the remaining electrons would be 14 - 2 = 12

It means 12 electrons will be placed as lone pair of electrons. To complete the octet, we put 6 dots around each of the atom. Oxygen is more electron negative than Cl, so we show the -1 charge for oxygen.
