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

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

endothermic reaction

Explanation:

It simply means that you are witnessing<u> an endothermic reaction</u>.

An endothermic reaction is one that absorbs heat energy from its surrounding, thereby leaving the reaction vessel with a lower temperature as compared to before the reaction.

It is as opposed to exothermic reactions which are reactions that give off energy in the form of heat to the surrounding, thereby leaving a reaction vessel warmer than before the reaction.

<em>In this case, the formation of ice crystals outside the test tube means that heat energy has been absorbed by the reaction which leaves the vessel a temperature cold enough to activate the formation of ice. </em>
