Answer:

d. One single bond and two double bonds.

Explanation:

The octate rule is a chemical rule in which the atoms prefer to have eight electrons in the valence shell. Where a single bond provide two electrons and a double bond provide 4 electrons. Thus:

a. Two double bonds . Two double bonds provide 8 electrons. Octate rule <em>is not </em>violated

b. Three single bonds and one pair of electrons . Three single bonds provide 6 electrons and one pair of electrons provide two electrons. Thus, you have eight electrons and octate rule <em>is not</em> violated

c. Two single bonds and one double bond . Two single bonds provide four electrons and one double bond 4. Thus, you have eight electrons and octate rule <em>is not </em>violated.

d. One single bond and two double bonds. One single bond provides two electrons and two double bonds 8. Thus, you have 10 electrons and <em>octate rule is violated.</em>

e. Four single bonds. Four single bonds provide 8 electrons. Octate rule<em> is not </em>violated.

I hope it helps!

1.Type of bonding in which electrons are completely transferred is called ionic bond.
2. Isotopes have same atomic number but different atomic mass number.
Atomic number = number of protons + number of neutrons
Therefore, A is correct. 
3. Nucleus is composed of neutrons and protons.
4. Chemical reactions follows the law of conservation of mass. Therefore mass of reactant = mass of product = 4 grams.
5. Again, mass of table salt formed should be equal to mass of (Na+Cl₂) = 4 grams.

Relative to the mass of the nucleous of a atom. the mass of electron is​
Paladinen [302]
The number of protons found in the nucleus equals the number of electrons that surround it, giving the atom a neutral charge (neutrons have zero charge). Most of an atom's mass is in its nucleus; the mass of an electron is only 1/1836 the mass of the lightest nucleus, that of hydrogen.Hoped this helped
