What happens when chlorine form an ion is that it gains an electron and has an octet in its outer shell ( answer A)
<u><em> Explanation</em></u>
<u><em> </em></u>Chlorine is is in atomic number 17 in periodic table.
The electron configuration of chlorine is 1S2 2S2 2P6 3S2 3P5 or[Ne]3S2 3p5 or 2.8.7.
chlorine therefore has 7 valence electron therefore it gain 1 electron to form Cl- ( ion)
Cl- has 8 electron in its outer shell ( it obeys octet rule of eight valence in outer shell.
D. It gives the same results when experiments are repeated
Hey there!
I can't be sure my answers are the exact words, but it should be something along the lines of...
The amount of water on Earth is constant, but the form and location of the water changes as it moves through the water cycle.
This means that Earth has always had the same amount of water within in, along with it being the same water the whole time. No new water was introduced to our planet. Some of our water is liquid, some is solid, and some is gas. Some is deep in the soil and some is high up in the atmosphere. Some is in rain and some is in snow.
I hope this helps!
