With the b2+b- 12 your gonna want to do this
b2+b-12
b2+4b-3b-12
which is the sum product
after doing that you wanna common the factors from the two pairs. Which is b2+4b-3b-12 then you do you parentheses around b(b+4)-3(b+4) just like that after you do that then you rewrite it in factored form b(b+4)-3(b+4) you then want to rewrite it to this (b-3)(b+4) after that your solution will be (b-3)(b+4) for the first one.

Answer:
I believe the answer is D.
Sulfur is an exception to the octet rule because it can have an expanded valence shell that holds more than 8 electrons. Common examples are sulfur tetrafluoride which has 10 valence electrons and sulfur hexafluoride which has 12 valence electrons.
However, there are no sulfur compounds with less than 8 valence electrons. So, the answer is false.
