Answer: the answer is B!
Explanation:
S and p’s are valence electrons and if added, there is 7 in total !
Characteristic properties can be used to describe and identify the substances, while non-characteristic properties, although can be used to describe the substances, cannot be used to identify them.
Temperature, mass, color, shape and volume are examples of non-characteristic properties.
Density, boiling point, melting point, chemical reactivity are examples of characteristic properties.
