Answer:

The answer to your question is letter B. Phosphoric acid

Explanation:

A. water is not the right answer because it has a density of 1 g/ml and water is a liquid not a solid.

B. phosphoric acid is the right answer because phosphoric acid is a solid and all solids have a density higher than water (1 g/ml)

C. sodium hydroxide could be the correct answer but it is not because the crystals of sodium hydroxide are more colorless than white.

Which of the following atoms could have an expanded octet when it is the central atom in a covalent compound?a) B
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

only chlorine can expand its octet.

Explanation:

An atom can expand its octet is it has empty d orbital

the electronic configuration of given elements will be:

B : 1s2 2s2 2p1 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]

O :1s2 2s2 2p4 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]

F : 1s2 2s2 2p5 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]

Cl :1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5 3d0 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]

Out of given elements only chlorine has empty d orbitals in its valence shell

Thus only chlorine can expand its octet.
