58. Each of the following answers is based on the assumption that nonmetallic
atoms tend to form covalent bonds in order to get an octet (8) of
electrons around each atom, like the very stable noble gases (other than
helium). Covalent bonds (represented by lines in Lewis structures) and lone
pairs each contribute two electrons to the octet.
(a) oxygen, O
If oxygen atoms form two covalent bonds, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Water is an example:
H O H
(b) fluorine, F
If fluorine atoms form one covalent bond, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Hydrogen fluoride, HF, is an example:
H F
(c) carbon, C
If carbon atoms form four covalent bonds, they will have an octet of electrons
around them. Methane, CH4, is an example:
H H

(d) phosphorus, P
If phosphorus atoms form three covalent bonds, they will have an octet
With the principle quantum number being 2, the maximum number that can share this is 8. You can use the general formula 2n^2 to calculate this number (n=quantum level), or you can use the concept of quantum numbers (n, l, m, s) to justify this answer.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
it's the sum of the masses of all the atoms in the molecule

The ground<span> state of an electron, the energy level it normally occupies, is the state of lowest energy for that electron. ... An electron </span>can become excited<span> if it is given extra energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a nearby </span>atom<span> or particle. (I do not take credit for that answer)</span>
