Without any ionization, the element (Cn) would have 112 electrons because the atomic number of an element is the number of protons the element has and a neutral element has the same number of electrons as it does protons.
Answer:
The correct answer is option A, that is, one valence electron in its third energy shell and option C, that is, 11 electrons and 11 protons.
Explanation:
The outermost electrons and the ones that take part in the process of bonding are termed as valence electrons. The atomic number of sodium is 11, thus, it possesses 11 protons and the atoms are neutral so it suggests that sodium has 11 electrons. By electronic configuration, it can be seen that in sodium, two electrons are present in the first shell, 8 in the second, and only one electron in the third shell, that is, 2.8.1. The electron present in the third shell is the valence electron.
Answer:
1. The metal atom/ion in these compounds are Ni and Ni2+ respectively.
2. The electrons from s oribital will jump to d orbital and so I expect CO to donate electron pairs in 4p and 4s orbitals and form sp3 hybridisation.
