Question

How would the model change as the atom forms bonds? The third shell would have eight electrons after the atom gains seven electrons to fill the outermost shell. The third shell would be empty so that the eight electrons in the second level would be outermost after the atom loses one electron. The first and third shells would be empty so that the atom would have eight electrons in its remaining shell after the atom loses three electrons. The first shell would have two electrons and the second shell would have six electrons after the atom loses three electrons.

Answer 1

Answer: It’s B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The third shell would be empty, so the eight electrons on the second level would be the outermost after the atom lost one electron

Step-by-step explanation:

When an atom is bonded with other atoms, a more stable configuration must be reached, which is why the energy of the molecule is less than the energy of the individual atoms, for this to happen in general, electrons are shared or lost and gained in each atom, depending on the electronegative of the same.

If we analyze an atom within the molecule, its last shell is full, in the case of atoms with few electrons in this shell, they are lost and in the case of many electors in this shell, it gains electrons to have eight (8) in total.

When reviewing the different answers, the correct one is:

* The third shell would be empty, so the eight electrons on the second level would be the outermost after the atom lost one electron
