Answer:

b. Each chlorine has three non-bonded pairs and one bonded pair of electrons.

Explanation:

Chlorine has three valance electrons. Each Cl atom forms a single covalent bond with the central P atom by sharing a pair of electrons. After forming a single covalent bond each Cl atom is left with six electrons that do not participate in any bond formation or there are three pairs of lone electrons.

azamat

Answer: There is no list in your question. But the three factors in which natural selection occurs are:

1. A struggle for existence,

2. Variation and

3. Inheritance

Explanation:

Darwin’s theory of natural selection is the way in which organisms change overtime.

These changes allow organisms to become better adapted to their environment and increase their chances for survival.

The three major factors through which natural selection occurs are:

1. A struggle for existence,

2. Variation and

3. Inheritance

Darwin’s theory of natural selection will occur if the three conditions above are met and unless these factors are in place, natural selection will not occur.
