Argon chloride, ArCl is least likely to exist.

Argon belongs to the noble gas family. It has an atomic number of 18 and a valence electron configuration: 3s²3p⁶. Since the valence shell is completely filled i.e. it already has an octet configuration, this makes it stable and chemically inert. When approached closely by another element, Cl in this case, the fully filled valence shell of Ar would repel the incoming electron cloud. The only bond that could exist is the extremely weak, long-range Vander-Waals bond between Ar and Cl.

The way in which light moves through objects is related to the type of material from which the object is made
adelina 88 [10]

Answer: True

Explanation:

The speed of light in a material medium depends on its molecular structure, in particular its electromagnetic properties, electrical and magnetic permeability. These properties may have different values for different wavelengths or frequencies of the incident light.

In this way,<u> the speed of light depends on the medium and reaches its maximum value in a vacuum</u>, so that, it will be lower in a material medium . In the vacuum (or in the air) the speed of light is 3 x 10⁸ m / s and in any other medium its value is lower.

<u>To characterize the particularities of the propagation of light in the media</u>, the refractive index is introduced ,

n = c / v  

where c is <u>speed of light in a vacuum</u>  and v is t<u>he speed of light in the medium</u> considered . So the speed of light in a medium is given by the refractive index whose value is always greater than 1.
