Most of the mass of an atom is located in the (nucleus), and most of the volume is taken up by the (electron clouds).
The ones in the parenthesis are your answers.
Hope this helps!
2, 8,6 because it has to be in a configuration of 2,8,8
WHAT IS AN IONIC BOND
kossel explained that inert gases r inert due to the electronic configuration which contains 8 electrons in their outermost shell
And other elements loss and gain electrons to form ions and to have electronic configuration same as Noble gas and to get stable

Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound .
the molecular formula for the compounds given are as follows
ethyne - C₂H₂
ethene - C₂H₄
ethane - C₂H₆
methane - CH₄
the actual ratios of the elements simplified ratio
C : H C : H
ethyne 2:2 1:1
ethene 2:4 1:2
ethane 2:6 1:3
methane 1:4 1:4
the only compound where the actual ratio is equal to the simplified ratio is methane
therefore in methane molecular formula CH₄ is the same as empirical formula CH₄
