A valid Lewis structure of IF3 cannot be drawn without violating the octet rule.
Answer: IF3 (Iodine Trifluoride)
This is because, I (Iodine) and F (Fluorine) both have odd number of valence electrons (7) which also means that there are too many valence electrons in the valence shell.
The correct answer is D.
I hope that helped! c:
The 2nd ionization energy is removing a 2nd electron from that resulting cation:
<span>Li+ --> Li2+ + 1e- </span>

Answer:
C. Gain in electron(s) resulting in a decrease of oxidation number.
Explanation:
Redox reactions are reactions involving transfer of of electron between two species (reduction specie) and (oxidation species) and change resulting in change in oxidation number.
Reduction in terms of redox reaction is the specie that accepts electron(s) and gets "reduced" since its oxidation state has been reduced.
For example
Cl + e- → Cl⁻
The above reaction is an example of reduction reaction taking place in a redox reaction. We can see that Chlorine oxidation state was changed from (0) to (-1) state.
