A student drew atomic models of four elements. Based on these drawings, which element is the least reactive?
(1 point)
Neon, because it has
three, two, four
energy levels with
four, seven, three, eight
electrons in the
third, fourth, second, fifth
level.
The least reactive element is Neon.
what are the other answers
The other answers are:
1. Oxygen: two energy levels with six electrons in the second level.
2. Fluorine: two energy levels with seven electrons in the second level.
3. Sodium: three energy levels with one electron in the first level, eight electrons in the second level, and one electron in the third level.
yeah but what are the answers for neon?
I apologize for the oversight. The correct atomic model for Neon is below:
Neon:
- Three energy levels
- Two electrons in the first level
- Eight electrons in the second level
- Eight electrons in the third level
Based on this model, Neon is the least reactive element.
