Thee question is incomplete; the complete question is;
Which elements do not strictly follow the octet rule when they appear in the Lewis structure of a molecule?
Select one or more:
A: Chlorine
B: Carbon
C: Hydrogen
D: Sulfur
E: Fluorine
F: Oxygen
Answer:
chlorine
sulphur
Explanation:
The octet rule states that, for atoms to be stable, they must have eight electrons on their outermost shells.
This rule is not strictly followed by some elements such as sulphur and chlorine. The atoms of these elements can sometimes expand their octet by utilizing the d-orbitals found in the third principal energy level and beyond.
These leads to formation of compounds in which the central atom has more than eight electrons in its outermost shell.

The acronym 'DNA' stands for deoxyribonucleic acid.
DNA is used to 'code' the genetic makeup of all living organisms, and is found inside the nucleus of the cell(Eukaryotes) or just floating in the cytoplasm of the cell(Prokaryotes). DNA is made up of 4 different pairs of base molecules(nucleotides) that are slightly different from another. The similar molecule structure RNA(ribonucleic acid) differs from DNA in that RNA nucleotides are just slightly different from the nucleotides of DNA. This difference is that RNA nucleotides have a hydroxide group(OH) where the DNA nucleotides just have a hydrogen atom.
Because the DNA nucleotide doesn't have the hydroxide group it has one less oxygen than RNA nucleotides do. This is where DNA derives the prefix "deoxy-," meaning "without oxygen."
The prefix "ribo-" is given to molecules with a certain configuration of a set of 3 consecutive but not necessarily contiguous CHOH(asymmetric) groups.
The combined form "nucleo-" is used to imply something that has to do with the nucleus, such as the nucleus of a cell where DNA is stored in Eukaryotes.
And finally, the ending of the acronym: "acid." DNA is an acid because the 4 nucleotides each contain a phosphate group, which are acidic.
And thus, we get our answer: deoxyribonucleic acid, and the meaning:
deoxy-ribo-nucleic acid
(without oxygen) + (has 3 CHOH groups) + (in/of the nucleus) + (acidic)
Thus, DNA is a molecule is basically an acidic molecule residing in the nucleus with 3 CHOH groups and is missing oxygen atoms.
I know this isn't really what you're looking for, but honestly I had a great time doing a little research into the name!
Hope this explains it a little! c;

Answer:
C
Explanation:
okay, you need to look at the structures of the particles of matter in the solid, liquid and gas.
- particles in a solid are in fixed positions, where they can only vibrate in those positions ( take a look at ice, or rather, a brick)
- liquids have very small or rather, no spaces between them, but they can slide or rub against each other, like people in a <em>really tight</em> crowd I guess
- gas particles have very large spaces between them and they move randomly. these exibit what's called brownian motion.
- since water particles (and all other liquid particles) have negligible spacings and limited movement, that allows the dye particles to move from a region of high concentration to that of a low concentration. the aim for this is for the mixture/solution to reach an equilibrium, that is the mixture must get to a point where all regions have the same concentration of the dye.
you can refer to your coursebooks :)
correct where wrong please:)
