Answer:
The metal cube lattice is made of only one kind of atom.
Explanation:
As we know that metallic crystals are made up of only one kind of element. A metal crystal is actually a huge sea of positive charges embedded in the layers of negative charges (electrons). The whole crystal is made up of same kind of atoms, e.g crystals of gold, crystals of iron.
If we talk about structure of metallic crystal, it can be body centered cubic, simple cubic, hexagonal or close cubic packing.
Now, coming towards the ionic crystals, we know that they are basically the crystals of ionic compounds like sodium chloride or cesium chloride. These crystals are formed due to ionic bonding between two or more than two kinds of elements/atoms. It is not possible for an ionic crystal to be composed of only one kind of atom. As far as structure is concerned, they can have different structure based on bonding between atoms in an ionic compound, e.g NaCl has octahedral geometry.
Therefore, it is very evident that best option is A.
Solution:- Hypochlorite ion
has one Cl and one O atom. Cl has 7 valence electrons and O has 6 valence electrons. Since there is one negative charge on the ion,
total valence electrons = 7 + 6 +1 = 14
(note:- if there is negative charge then it is added and if there is positive charge then it is subtracted while calculating the valence electrons)
Both Cl and O atoms wants to complete their octet and so for this we put a single bond between them. Single bond means two electrons, so the remaining electrons would be 14 - 2 = 12
It means 12 electrons will be placed as lone pair of electrons. To complete the octet, we put 6 dots around each of the atom. Oxygen is more electron negative than Cl, so we show the -1 charge for oxygen.
