Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Valence shell is the shell present on the outermost core of an atom and electrons present in the valence shell are known as valence electrons.

If an atom has completely filled valence shell then it means the atom is not reactive in nature because it is already stable.

But when an atom has less than eight electrons in its valence shell then it means to attain stability the atom will readily attract electrons towards itself.

As the given element 1 has 8 electrons in its valence shell. Hence, it is not reactive in nature but element 2 has 6 valence electrons. So, in order to attain stability element 2 will readily attract 2 electrons from a donor atom.

Thus, we can conclude that element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a full valence shell, so it will attract electrons.

Several billion years ago, which gas was the least prevalent in the atmosphere?
Amiraneli [1.4K]
The least prevalent gas in the atmosphere was oxygen several billion years ago. This is because it was only around 2.4-3 billion years ago when the first photosynthetic bacteria evolved, meaning they produce food from inorganic compounds such as carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen. Oxygen is then released in the atmosphere and this is called <em>The Great Oxygenation Event</em>.

The emission spectrum of hydrogen shows discrete, bright, colored lines. Which characteristic of the Bohr model is best supporte
natali 33 [55]
The characteristic of the Bohr model that would best support his observation is this assumption: "The energy of the electron in an orbit is proportional to its distance from the nucleus. The further the electron is from the nucleus, the more energy it has." The discrete, bright, colored lines might represent the electrons and its distance from the nucleus. The lights are caused by the energy it has.

The resulting daughter isotope that is formed when the atom astatine-213 undergoes alpha emission is: ​
bagirrra123 [75]
Radioactive decay (also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration or nuclear disintegration) is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. A material containing unstable nuclei is considered radioactive. Three of the most common types of decay are alpha decay (-decay), beta decay (-decay), and gamma decay (-decay), all of which involve emitting one or more particles or photons. The weak force is the mechanism that is responsible for beta decay, while the other two are governed by the usual electromagnetic and strong forces.[1]
