You did not provide possible answers, but one possible might be that the current atomic theory is so sound and plausible that there should not be anything that could change it in the near future.
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) = ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
zinc + hydrochloric acid = zinc chloride + hydrogen
Answer:
D. an orbital notation of the atom
Explanation:
Orbital notiation uses lines and arrows to show shells, subshells, and orbitals for electrons in an atom. Since it shows arrows being paired up in this diagram it would be the best model for Chuck to use.
The correct answer is ClO, ClO3-, ClO- and ClO4-
Kossel and Lewis in 1916 developed an important theory of chemical combination between atoms known as electronic theory of chemical bonding. According to this, atoms can combine either by transfer of valence electrons from one atom to another (gaining or losing) or by sharing of valence electron in order to have an octet( 8 electron) in their shells. This is known as octet rule.
In ClO2-, oxygen contains 8 electrons in its valence shell and oxygen will share one electron with chlorine to complete the octet of Cl. In other four, we can clearly see that there are more or less than 8 electrons in the outer shell of oxygen so we can clearly say that ClO, ClO3-, ClO- and ClO4- are disobeying the octet rule.
