Answer:
The configuration of the atom would be 2-8-2.
Explanation:
Any atom of an element combines with other element to complete its octet and become stable.
The electron configuration of the given atom is 2-8-6. That means the atom has 6 electrons in its outermost shell. To become stable the atom should have 8 electrons in its outermost shell. The given atom has 6 electrons so it either lose 6 electrons or gain 2 electrons to complete its octet.
But we know the atom having 5,6,7 electrons in its outermost shell they do not lose, they gain either 3 or 2 or 1 electrons to complete its octet.
So we say that atom with the electron configuration 2-8-6 bond with the atom having electron configuration 2-8-2.
Answer:
Explanation:
Space exploration technology has helped us explore the Moon and see images of far off galaxies.
Space technology may help us inhabit another planet or live in space in the future.
These are the correct statements
Answer:
A. The children will be more likely to survive than if they did not have the trait.
Explanation:
Process of elimination
B. It will not affect the children.
Cannot be true, if it didn't impact the children then how would survival of the fittest work?
D. The children will be able to adapt if the environment changes.
That just... not how adapting works when it comes to evolution.
C. The children will be more likely to survive than their parents were
Everyone has the same trait, everyone is equal in that regard.
A. The children will be more likely to survive than if they did not have the trait.
"Suppose a pair of animals has a trait that helps them survive in their environment." The trait helps them survive. Not having the trait makes them less likely to survive. A is correct
Y=15 x=60
•1/3 •1/3
y=5 x=45
