Describe the orbital diagram of an atom with eight electrons. Explain how this orbital diagram demonstrates Hund's rule.

i believe the answer is true.

substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon:

- the single bond remains single. a is wrong.

- the bond with hydrogen is as strong as with a halogen. c is wrong

- a hydrocarbon is saturated if there is no double bond. we do not know that so d is wrong.

- carbon will always have four valence electrons. e is wrong.

by elimination, the correct answer is b. the boiling point of the new compound increases.

explanation:

0.07 g/cm³

1.37 g/cm³
