Answer:
A family in the periodic table is a group of related elements.
Explanation:
Answer:
B, C
Explanation:
The atoms or ions with the valid Lewis dot structures are B and C.
In A;
The Lewis structure of the carbon is correct. Each of the four dots represent the four valence electrons.
The nitrogen with one dot on top, left and to the bottom and has a charge of minus 3 is wrong. For it to have a charge of -3 it must have 8 lewis dots ( two on the top, right, bottom and to the left)
The nitrogen with four dots (on top, right, bottom and to the left) is wrong.
In B;
An oxygen has two dots on top and bottom and one dot to the left and to the right. This is correct , the 6 dots represent the valence electrons of oxygen.
In C;
A carbon has two dots on top, right, bottom and to the left and a charge of plus four. This is correct because the charge indicates that it has gained four extra electrons so its valence electrons is now 8.
In D;
An oxygen has two dots on top, left and to the bottom and a charge of minus 2. This is wrong because the lewis dots are incomplete. Two dots are missing.
Is this a multiple choice?
Physical Change because a new substance was not created and if it was a chemical change, a new substance would have to be created.
This is called codon degeneracy. It is also said that the genetic code is redundant, meaning that multiple codons can code for the same amino acid, like for example CCC and CCA both coding Proline.
