Explanation:
According to Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory, the shape of a molecule depends on the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.
For all the compounds listed, the central atom has four points of electron density. This correspond to a tetrahedra electron pair geometry. The presence of lone pairs on the central atom of OF2,NF3 and H2S accounts for the departure of the observed molecular geometry from the geometry and idealized bond angle predicted on the basis of the VSEPR theory.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Elements in a group are determined by the number of valence electrons
Elements in a period are determined by the number of electrons shell
The electronic configuration of the element is
2,8,8
the number of valence electron is 8 that means it is in Group 8/O
the number of electron shell is 3 that means it is in period (row) 3
Group 8/O elements are called Noble gases
Answer: Extensive properties, such as mass and volume, depend on the amount of matter being measured. Intensive properties, such as density and color, do not depend on the amount of the substance present. Physical properties can be measured without changing a substance's chemical identity.
It would be C. inherited characteristics
