Chemistry

There are 2 electrons in the overlapping region.

Chlorine is the second member of the halogen group which are form of family of elements that resemble one another very closely.

The electronic configuration of chlorine shows the arrangement of chlorine electrons within it's atom.

At the outer most shell of the atom is seven electrons, therefore requires only one electron each to attain the octet arrangement.

The overlapping of the orbitals indicates the chemical bond formed by sharing of electrons between atoms called covalent bonding.

To complete it's outer most shell, it will need to share electron with another chlorine atom.

Therefore, there are 2 electrons in the overlapping region.

2) Which element is used as fuel in nuclear reactors? How many years before we run out of it?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:Uranium

80 years

To make that nuclear reaction that makes that heat, those uranium pellets are the fuel. And just like any fuel, it gets used up eventually. Your 12-foot-long fuel rod full of those uranium pellet, lasts about six years in a reactor, until the fission process uses that uranium fuel up.

Transuranic wastes, sometimes called TRU, account for most of the radioactive hazard remaining in high-level waste after 1,000 years. Radioactive isotopes eventually decay, or disintegrate, to harmless materials. Some isotopes decay in hours or even minutes, but others decay very slowly.
