2. (15) Butane (C4H10) burns with dry air, giving products with a dry product analysis 11% CO2, 1% CO, 3.5% O2, and 84.5% N2. Determine

Iwould have to say

Answer: 1s²  2s²  2p⁶explanation: from the periodic table, we can note that the neutral fluorine  has 9 electrons (symbol is shown in the attached image)therefore, the configuration of neutral fluorine  is: 1s²  2s²  2p⁵now, f⁻  means that the neutral fluorine  gained one extra electron. this means that f⁻  has 10 electrons.the extra electron will occupy the 2p level to make it complete.the configuration now  is: 1s²  2s²  2p⁶comparing between both f and f⁻, we can note that f⁻  has now complete orbitals which means that it is more stable than f based on lewis postulatehope this : )
