Both ti and hf behave as though they possess the same number of valence electrons. which of the subshells in the electron configuration of hf behave as valence orbitals?

5d

Explanation:

Hafnium

[Xe]6s2 4f14 5d2

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f14 5d2

Above is the full electron configuration of Hf. It can be seen that it has the same d2 outermost electron configuration as Ti. Hence they belong to the same group in the periodic table.

answer

fusion: the energy source of stars. the energy released from the collapse of the gas into a protostar causes the center of the protostar to become extremely hot. when the core is hot enough, nuclear fusion commences. fusion is the process where two hydrogen atoms combine to form a helium atom, releasing energy.
