inonci luuens.liS StPongly advised to take the chapter quiz at t d of each week. Question 1 1 pts In ionic bonds as well as in covalent bonds, what configuration do the electrons in the atoms usually take on in order to achieve the lowest energy (greatest stability)? full outer valence shells O non-overlapping orbits that are nonetheless as close to each other as possible O even numbers of electrons in each energy shell O as many electrons in the electron shells as there are protons in the nucleus O empty inner shells, full outer shells DQuestion 2 1 pts

Explanation / Answer
