When compounds form, the atoms that bonded get a stable arrangement of electrons.
Compounds form because their atoms get a more stable arrangement than they had in the reactants.
A stable arrangement is a <em>complete octet</em> of eight electrons in the valence shell
.
1 mole of water = 18 grams (you can find this by finding mass of two hydrogen and one oxygen which is (1*2) + 16 = 18)
1.8 grams = 0.1 moles
1 H2O molecule has 10 electrons so 0.1 moles can be computed as:
(6.023*10^23)*(0.1)*10 = 6.023*10^23 electrons
carbon has 4 valence electrons
I think it will be letter A tbh
Hope this helps you out
The accepted model of an atom was made by Schrodinger, which is known as the quantum mechanical model. Unlike Bohr's model, electrons are represented as a cloud and not small balls orbiting the nucleus. There is no define path of electrons in Schrodinger's model, but it can predict the odds of where an electron is located.
The answer to your question is then Electrons form a cloud around the nucleus.
