It would be most similar to neon. it wouldn’t be sulfur because that’s in the same group as oxygen and has the same number of electrons. and carbon has less than that so the only one that makes sense is neon

A preliminary untested explanation that tries to explain how or why things happen in the manner observed is a scientific
icang [17]
It is a scientific hypothesis. A scientific hypothesis must be testable, however there is a significantly more grounded necessity that a testable speculation must meet before it can truly be viewed as logical. This foundation comes essentially from crafted by the rationalist of science Karl Popper, and is called "falsifiability".

Choose the answer that best completes the following statement: When an aluminum atom reacts so as to attain a noble gas electron
boyakko [2]

The options

Select one:

a. a 3- ion forms.

b. the noble gas configuration of argon is achieved.

c. the result is a configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.

d. the atom gains five electrons.

Answer:

c. the result is a configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.

Explanation:

Aluminium atom has atomic number of 13 , hence the number of electron is 13 for a neutral atom of aluminium. When aluminium atom reacts with other elements it usually gives out three electron to attain the octet configuration.

The cation representation of aluminium is Al3+ because it has loss three electron to attain the octet rule. Aluminium will be left with 10 electrons after losing 3 of it electrons. The electronic configuration will be represented as follows after losing three electrons;

1S² 2S² 2P∧6 .

At this stage the octet rule has been achieved as it will be represented as

2  8.  The first energy shell now contains two electron and the second energy shell contains 8 electrons.

The configuration of  Neon has been formed in the process.
