  • See charge on ion is -1 .

Hence it has taken 1 electron

Now first look at EC of Fluorine(F)

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow 1s^22s^22p^5

  • Now one electron added .hence no of electrons is 10now

Look at the EC

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow 1s^22s^22p^6

Or

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow [He]

Option C is correct.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

He developed the concept of concentric electron energy levels

Explanation:

Before Bohr's model, Rutherford's model was proposed. This model explains most of the properties of the atom but failed to explain the stability of the atom.

As per Rutherford's model, electrons revolve around the nucleus in the orbit.

But revolving electron in their orbit around nucleus would give up energy and so gradually move towards the nucleus and therefore, eventually collapse.

Bohr's proposed that the electrons around the nucleus move orbit of fixed energy called "stationary states". Electrons in these stationary states  do not radiate energy.

Therefore, proposal of concentric electron energy levels refine the atomic models.

What’s a giant hunk of rock and metal
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: “We live on a hunk of rock and metal that circles a humdrum star that is one of 400 billion other stars that make up the Milky Way Galaxy which is one of billions of other galaxies which make up a universe which may be one of a very large number, perhaps an infinite number, of other universes. That is a perspective on human life and our culture that is well worth pondering.”
