LekaFEV [45]3 years ago
3 0
The s orbital can hold up to two electrons while the p orbital can hold up to six electrons.
An atoms satisfying the octet rule means that this atom has eight electrons in its outermost energy level (which is the maximum number of electrons that can be found in a single level and makes the atom stable).
For this to happen, two electrons must occupy the s orbital and 6 electrons must occupy the p orbital. This makes a total of eight electrons.

Therefore, the right choice is:
<span>d) both full s orbital and full p orbital</span>

Describe the long term effects of competition on populations of two different species competing for the same source.
Galina-37 [17]
The long term effects of competition on populations of two different species competing for the same source are as follows:
1. It becomes a situation of the survival of the fittest. For example, if two populations of plants compete for the same source, the stronger of the two species will overpower the weaker of the two species. Trees that grow taller will block out the sun and the smaller trees will die. In the animal kingdom, the strongest of the predators that compete for the same prey will survive.
