The correct option is C.
A Lewis dot diagram is a representation of the valence electron of an atom, which uses dot around the symbol of the atom. Chlorine has seven electrons in its outermost shell, these seven electrons are arranged in form of dot around the atom of chlorine. If you count the number of dot given in option C, you will notice that they are seven.

Answer:

C. Cl (w/ 2 dots above and to the left of the C, 1 underneath, and 2 dots to the right of the 1).

Explanation:

Hello,

Electron dot structure is related with the Lewis structure showing the valence electrons for a given element. In this case, the involved element is chlorine, whose symbol is Cl, which is located at the group VIIA, it means that it has seven valence electrons (the number of electrons at its outer shell) around it when expressing the aforesaid structure which is arranged as described on the C. option, this is substantiated via the attached picture showing such arrangement.

Best regards.

The evaporation of liquid water from the surface of Earth is an important step in the water cycle. How do water molecules obtain

Alex777 [14]

<span>Well, during the day, the water, as well as the surfaces surrounding the water, are heated by various thermodynamic processes: conduction, convection, radiation, etc. This in turn warms the water molecules in the lakes, streams, rivers, and oceans, thereby transferring heat (their kinetic energy) to the water molecules, which in turn receive that energy from the surrounding surfaces, or directly via radiation/insolation from the sun. When the water molecules attain enough energy, some of them attain enough energy to escape the surface of the liquid and enter the gas phase. Hence, as water is heated, more and more water molecules attain enough kinetic energy to enter the gas phase.</span>
