The correct option is "Cd²⁺".

When an element achieves pseudo noble gas configuration<span> it means it has 18 </span>electrons<span> in the highest energy level instead of 8.

The electronic configuration of cadmium is:
</span><span>1<span>s</span></span>² <span>2<span>s</span></span>² <span>2<span>p</span></span>⁶ <span>3<span>s</span></span>² <span>3<span>p</span></span>⁶ <span>4<span>s</span></span>² <span>3<span>d</span></span>¹⁰ <span>4<span>p</span></span>⁶ <span>5<span>s</span></span>² <span>4<span>d<span>1</span></span></span>¹⁰<span><span><span>
</span></span></span>

and the electron configuration of <span>C<span>d</span></span>²⁺ is

<span>1<span>s</span></span>² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰

Filtration and dialysis are techniques that rely on differences in particle size to separate mixture components. True False
soldier1979 [14.2K]

This is true. Think about when you make pasta. The colander acts as a filter and doesn't let the past a through but allows the extra water to escape because the pasta is too big to fit.
