The electron configuration that corresponds to the lewis symbol, : cl.... . is ________.

1 answer:

6 0

The Lewis structure depicts the number valence electrons surrounding an atom. These are the electrons present in the outer shells which can participate in bonding with another atom or remain as non-bonding (lone pair) electrons.

In the given example there are 7 dots or 7 electrons surrounding a Cl atom. This corresponds to 7 valence electrons with a configuration that can be given as: s²p⁵ and specifically, 2s²2p⁵

Art [367]

Answer:

o-bromotoluene, m-bromotoluene and p-bromotoluene.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, on the attached picture you will find the reaction which yields o-bromotoluene as the first product, m-bromotoluene as the second product and p-bromotoluene as the last one since the substitution could be done at the second (ortho), third (meta) or fourth (para) carbons on the toluene.
