B. the number 3.
there are 2Al's on both sides and 6 Cl's on the right side so to balance it, you multiply Cl2 by 3 to get 6 Cl's.
Answer:
★ Molecular geometry is described by VSEPR theory, which basically states that electron pairs around a central atom will repel each other, and get as far apart as possible, in three dimensions.
Explanation:
Hope you have a great day :)
Answer: <u>Four</u>Explanation: Calcium Sulfide is an ionic compound made up of Ca²⁺ and S²⁻.
Ca²⁺ is formed as,
Ca → Ca²⁺ + 2 e⁻
These two electrons are accepte by Sulfur as,
S + 2 e⁻ → S²⁻
So, before accepting 2 electrons S was having six valence electrons, after accepting two electrons from Ca it has 8 electrons which are present in four pairs as shown below,
