Answer:
B, C
Explanation:
The atoms or ions with the valid Lewis dot structures are B and C.
In A;
The Lewis structure of the carbon is correct. Each of the four dots represent the four valence electrons.
The nitrogen with one dot on top, left and to the bottom and has a charge of minus 3 is wrong. For it to have a charge of -3 it must have 8 lewis dots ( two on the top, right, bottom and to the left)
The nitrogen with four dots (on top, right, bottom and to the left) is wrong.
In B;
An oxygen has two dots on top and bottom and one dot to the left and to the right. This is correct , the 6 dots represent the valence electrons of oxygen.
In C;
A carbon has two dots on top, right, bottom and to the left and a charge of plus four. This is correct because the charge indicates that it has gained four extra electrons so its valence electrons is now 8.
In D;
An oxygen has two dots on top, left and to the bottom and a charge of minus 2. This is wrong because the lewis dots are incomplete. Two dots are missing.
Answer:
2480$
Explanation:
2000$*(3%=0.03)=60$
multiply by 8 = 480$
then by adding it to 2000 = 2480$
All elements can be classified as metals, metalloids, or nonmetals
Answer:
The electron configuration for a
Mn3+ ion is [Ar]3d4
Explanation:
The environment affects natural selection. Speices need to adapt to changes in environmnet. The weaker organisms which fail to adapt to environment perish while the stronger ones who adapt to the environment survive. This is how environment affects natural selection.
