The first option is correct. have fun in earth science i love astronomy!! :)
Answer:
8
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
t–butyl ion = (CH₃)₃C⁺
Number of valence electron =?
The valence electron(s) talks about the combining power of an element or compound as the case may be.
Considering the t–butyl ion, (CH₃)₃C⁺ we can see that it has a charge of +1 indicating that it has given out 1 electron to attain the stable octet configuration which has a valence electrons of 8. Thus, the valence electron of t–butyl ion, (CH₃)₃C⁺ is 8
The largest transition metal is copernicium with 112 protons
