<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Option B is the Answer. </em>

<em>Both are highly reactive.</em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

For a neutral atom,

Atomic number = number of electrons = number of protons.

We can identify the element from its atomic number

It says 9 and 11 are the atomic number. By looking at the periodic table we know the elements are Fluorine and sodium.

Na has 2 electron in the first shell and 8 in the second and 1 in the outer shell

F has 2 electron in the first shell and 7 in the outer shell.

Atoms with less than 8 electrons in the outer shell are not stable. In order to attain stability atom either loses or gains or shares its electron and gets 8 electron in its outer shell to become more reactive.

Sodium easily loses its outer shell electron and becomes reactive

Na (2,8,1) becomes Na^+ (2, 8)

Fluorine gains easily an electron and becomes reactive.  

F (2, 7) becomes F^- (2, 8)

Having 8 electrons in its outershell electron makes an atom more stable.

weqwewe [10]

Explanation:

CH₃CH₃ + Cl₂ → CH₃CH₂Cl + HCl

  • This reaction take place in the presence of light/UV rays. (i.e, photochemical reaction)
  • It's a Chlorination reaction because here there's addition of chlorine.
  • It's a substitution reaction because Cl substituted H from place and attach there.

Option which is NOT correct is
