Strontium, a group 2 element with an electron configuration of 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 4s 2 3d 10 4p 6 5s 2 , will form a ion in a chemical bond. +1 +2 -1 -2

There is one s orbital, and there are three p orbitals, five d orbitals, and seven f orbitals. thus, the answer is b. do not confuse the number of orbitals in a subshell with the number of electrons the subshell can hold. each orbital can hold two electrons, so the capacity of an nf subshell is 14 electrons.

The mass has escaped into a gas which you can not see so the law stays true.

☆ionisation energy increases across a period from na -> ar☆ionisation energy decreases down a group from li -> fr☆ionic radius decreases across a period from na -> cl☆ionic radius increases down a groupfrom f -> ii hope it clarifies your doubts

The answer is solid copper
