Answer: C)Anion, it would gain 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule.
Explanation:
Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.
The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies and thus the electronic configuration of oxygen with 8 electrons is
The cation is formed by loss of electrons and anions are formed by gain of electrons.
In order to complete its octet and get stable, it gains 2 electrons and thus would form an anion.
Answer:- molecules.
Solution:- The grams of tetrabromomethane are given and it asks to calculate the number of molecules.
It is a two step unit conversion problem. In the first step, grams are converted to moles on dividing the grams by molar mass.
In second step, the moles are converted to molecules on multiplying by Avogadro number.
Molar mass of = 12+4(79.9) = 331.6 g per mol
let's make the set up using dimensional analysis:
= molecules
So, there will be molecules in 250 grams of
