Answer to: Number of valence electrons in Cl ion are : (a) 16 (b) 8 (c) 17 (d) 18

(b) 8 Explanation: Electronic configuration of Cl (Z = 17) = 2, 8, 7. Thus, it has 7 valence electrons. Cl gains 1 electron to form CL ion. So, nu...

Answer to: Composition of the nuclei of two atomic species X and Y are given as under: X Y Protons = 6 6 Neutrons = 6 8 Give the mass numbers of X and Y. What is the relation between the two species?

Mass number of X = No. of protons + No. of neutrons = 6 + 6 = 12 Mass number of Y = 6 + 8 = 14 The species X and Y are isotopes because their ...
