(2) three fewer valence electrons is your answer.
Atomic number of C is 6. Hence, there are 6 electrons in carbon.
The electronic configuration of carbon is 1s2, 2s2, 2p2
Here, there are 2 unpaired electron. However, C2+ ions have 2 electrons less as compared to C.
Hence, electronic configuration of C 2+ ion is 1s2, 2s2. All the electrons are paired in this system. So there are no unpaired electrons in C 2+ ion.
Answer:
both have the same number of atoms
Explanation:
saw it on a quizlet
I would believe it to be 55g. A -> B YIELDS AB. So, 10g + 45g = 55g.
