(a)
Interpretation:
Lewis symbols for elements with the electronic configuration
Concept Introduction:
Lewis symbol:
A Lewis symbol is a pictorial representation of an elementsurrounded by dots indicating number of electrons in the outer energy level. The group number of the element indicates number of valence electrons.
By using an electron configuration of an atom, we can draw its Lewis symbol by drawing the chemical symbol of the element surrounded by the appropriate number of valence electrons.
(b)

- In the decomposition reaction in solution B → C, only species C absorbs UV radiation, but neither B nor the solvent absorbs. If we call At the absorbance measured at any time, A0 the absorbance at the beginning of the reaction, and A∞ the absorbance at the end of the reaction, which of the expressions is valid? We assume that Beer's law is fulfilled.arrow_forward> You are trying to decide if there is a single reagent you can add that will make the following synthesis possible without any other major side products: 1. ☑ CI 2.
