D.  The number of electrons equals the atomic number for a neutral element.  Each number after the letter refers to the number of electrons in that shell.  So for D, 2+2+6+2+6+2 = 20 electrons, which is equal to the atomic number.

If the freezing point of an aqueous 0.10 m glucose solution is −x°c, what is the approximate freezing point of a 0.10 m nacl sol
maks197457 [2]
Answer is: the approximate freezing point of a 0.10 m NaCl solution is -2x°C.
V<span>an't Hoff factor (i) for NaCl solution is approximately 2.
</span>Van't Hoff factor (i) for glucose solution is 1.<span>
Change in freezing point from pure solvent to solution: ΔT = i · Kf · m.
Kf - molal freezing-point depression constant for water is 1,86°C/m.
m -  molality, moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
</span>Kf and molality for this two solutions are the same, but Van't Hoff factor for sodium chloride is twice bigger, so freezing point is twice bigger.
