Answer:
1. B
2. C
3. C
4. B
Explanation:
1. An atom of sulfur has an atomic number of 16. It has three electron shells and six valence electrons, therefore, it belongs to period 3, group VIA of the periodic table
2. Bromine has an atomic number of 35. It belongs to period 4 group VIIA of the periodic table. Therefore, it has four electron shells and seven valence electrons.
3. Argon has an atomic number of 18. It belongs to period 3, group IVA of the periodic table. Therefore, it has three electron shells and eight valence electrons.
4. The Lewis dot model use structures that represent the valence electrons of atoms within a molecule existing as lone pairs or when involved in bonding. They can be used to draw electrons that are involved in a collision during a chemical reaction.
