Alr u see. argon is in group 8 of the periodic table, also known as noble gases. noble gases all have full shells, octect. this means that there is no chance for covalent or ionic bonding, no valence electrons available to bonding.

however, chlorine is in group 7 of the periodic table. this means to obtain a full octect shell, they will have to undergo covalent bonding to form a full octect shell.

hence, argon is more stable compared to chlorine

Judging by the electron domain geometry, which type of hybrid orbitals does this molecule have? s sp sp2 sp3
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The molecule have TETRAHEDRAL HYBRID ORBITAL.
SP3 hybridization involves the mixing of one orbital of S sub level and three orbitals of P sub level of the valence shell. All the orbitals possess equivalent energies and shapes. The SP3 orbital has 25% S character and 75% P character. S and P refers to the s and p sub shells.<span />

Iodine 131, cesium 137, and strontium 90 are all considered isotopes. What are isotopes?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Isotopes are variants of an element, where the number of neutrons is different but its number of protons stay the same.

Explanation:

If the number of protons had changed then it would just be a different element.

Electron number changing simply adds charge to the atom, and doesn't change it or anything.
