Answer: C)Anion, it would gain 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule.
Explanation:
Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.
The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies and thus the electronic configuration of oxygen with 8 electrons is
The cation is formed by loss of electrons and anions are formed by gain of electrons.
In order to complete its octet and get stable, it gains 2 electrons and thus would form an anion.
To be honest, I learned this in school so I'll tell you XD
The formula of sodium oxide is Na2O
Answer:
Air
Explanation:
It takes up space/ the rest do not
Answer:
B) Electrons are located in the cloud-like areas around the nucleus.
Explanation:
The quantum mechanical model of the atom does not consider the path through which an electron travels. It rather estimates the probability of where electrons can be found at each energy level.
The region of maximum probability of where an electron is located is sometimes called an electron cloud or orbital. Each orbital of an atom and the electrons accomodated are described completely by a set of four quantum numbers.
I would say the answer is emissions. These are the particles that are not supposed to be present in air but due to the production of different substances from humans daily activities these substances go with the air we breath. Hope this helped.
