QUESTION:

Indicate the noble gas that has the same Lewis structure as each ion.

(a) \(S e^{2-}\)

(b) \(I^{-}\)

(c) \(S r^{2+}\)

(d) \(F^{-}\)

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 4

Here, we are going to write the Lewis structure for each ion.

(a) \(\mathrm{Se}^{2-}\)

The electronic configuration of Se is \([\mathrm{Ar}] 3 \mathrm{~d}^{10} 4 \mathrm{~s}^{2} 4 \mathrm{p}^{4}\)

\(\mathrm{Se}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \cdots-\cdots>\mathrm{Se}^{2-}\)

The electronic configuration of \(\mathrm{Se}^{2-}\) is \([\mathrm{Ar}] 3 \mathrm{~d}^{10} 4 \mathrm{~s}^{2} 4 \mathrm{p}^{6} \text { or }[\mathrm{Kr}]\)

The Lewis structure for \(\mathrm{Se}^{2-}\) is same as Kr.

Krypton (Kr) has same Lewis structure as \(\mathrm{Se}^{2-}\) ion.
