During a scientific study a hypotheses is generally modified or discarded
so for first blank the answer is hypotheses
Now in case of phlogiston theory it was assumed that when a substance catches fire it evolve certain substances known as phlogiston which was later on discarded as there is no such particle. Infact a substane undergoing oxidation may gain weight
Hence in second blank the answer is new evidence didn’t support it,
Answer: A) Na+ and O2-
Explanation:
To know the electronic configuration, one has to determine the numbers of electrons present in each atom.
Na+ means a sodium atom that has lost one valence electron. A Sodium atom initially has 11 electrons, but having lost an electron making it 10 electrons remaining with electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.
O2- means oxygen atom that has gained two valence electrons. An oxygen atom initially has 8 electrons, having gained two electrons makes it 10 electrons with electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6. same as Na+
The purpose of gaining or losing electrons is to attain a stable duplet or octet structure.
