Question

1) The electrons of which pair of subshells (also called sublevels) make up the octet of valence electrons?

(a)1p and 2p (b) d and f (c) d and f (d) 3p and 3d (e) None

2) The electrons of which pair of subshells (also called sublevels) make up the octet of valence electrons?

(a)2p and 2p (b) d and s (c) d and f (d) 3p and 3d (e) None

3) The electrons of which pair of subshells (also called sublevels) make up the octet of valence electrons?

(a)2p and 2p (b) d and f (c) s and f (d) 4p and 3d (e) None

4) The electrons of which pair of subshells (also called sublevels) make up the octet of valence electrons?

(a)3p and 2p (b) d and f (c) s and f (d) 4p and 4d (e) None

5) The electrons of which pair of subshells (also called sublevels) make up the octet of valence electrons?

(a)3p and 2p (b) 3d and f (c) s and f (d) 4p and 3d (e) None

For example: The electrons of which pair of subshells (also called sublevels) make up the octet of valence electrons?

Ans: s and p

Explanation / Answer

In first question option (e) none is correct because d and f subshell does not satisfy octet rule, 1p does not exist

In second question option (a) 2p and 2p is correct because both are satisy octet rule remaing options have d or f sub shell

In third question option (a) 2p and 2p is correct because both are satisy octet rule remaing options have d or f sub shell

In fourth question option (a) 3p and 2p is correct because both are satisy octet rule remaing options have d or f sub shell

In fifth question option (a) 3p and 2p is correct because both are satisy octet rule remaing options have d or f sub shell
