Answer:
d. IF3
Explanation:
The Octet rule posits that atoms gain, atom lose, or share electrons in order to have a full valence shell of 8 electrons. This statement occurs when atoms also combine to form molecules until they attain or share eight valence electrons either by losing or gaining eletrons.
From the given options, a valid Lewis structure that cannot be drawn without violating the octet rule is IF3
Hello! Your answer is C, one atom of iron and three atoms of chlorine.
In this case, there is some ambiguity with "Cl". It could be C + I, or Cl. (One being carbon + iodine and the other Chlorine). However, we can see that the only choice that mentions iodine states two atoms, which is incorrect, as if it was iodine, the 3 indicates that there would be three atoms.
Therefore, Cl must be chlorine. If you look at choice C, there are three atoms of chlorine, as indicated by the 3 at the end of the Cl. There is also one molecule of Fe, as there is no number at the end of it so there has to be only one.
B is not correct, as carbon would be only "C". A is not correct as a molecule is a collection of atoms bonded together, therefore, this compound could be named a molecule, but there are not multiple molecules inside this compound.
Hope this helps!
