Im pretty sure it would be d.
Your control group would be the batteries since you CONTROL what brand you're using, for which one lasts the longest...aren't you suppose to figure that out when you do the experiment?
A large unstable nucleus becomes tinier and emits an alpha
particle during Alpha decay. 4/2He or the alpha particle that consists of two
protons and two neutrons can be discharged from the nucleus during the disintegration
of radioactive decay. It has a charge of
positive 2.
Answer:
Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰5(sp³d³)₆⁺² => Octahedral Geometry (AX₆)⁺²
Explanation:
Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰(5s²5p₋₁²p₀²p₁²5d₋₂d₋₁d₀)⁺² => Xe[Kr]5(sp³d³)₆²
Ca. #Valence e⁻ = Xe + 6F - 2e⁻ = 1(8) + 6(7) - 2 = 48
Ca. #Substrate e⁻ = 6F = 6(8) = 48
#Nonbonded free pairs e⁻ = (V - S)/2 = (48 - 48)/2 = 0 free pairs
#Bonded pairs e⁻ = 6F substrates = 6 bonded pairs
BPr + NBPr = 6 + 0 = 6 e⁻ pairs => Geometry => [AX₆]⁺² => Octahedron
Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰(5s²5p₋₁²p₀²p₁²5d₋₂d₋₁d₀)⁺² => Xe[Kr]5(sp³d³)₆⁺²
XeF₆⁺² => 6(sp³d³) hybrid orbitals => Octahedral Geometry (AX₆)
