Consider the following three-step reaction pathway.
Step 1: (CH3)3AUPH3 → (CH3)3Au + PH3 (fast)
Step 2: (CH3)3Au → (CH3)Au + C2H6 (slow)
Step 3: (CH3)Au + PH3 → (CH3)AUPH3 (fast)
Which is the correct list of reaction intermediates from the reaction pathway above?
(CH3)3AUPH3, (CH3)3Au, and (CH3)Au
O PH3 and (CH3)Au
O (CH3)3AUPH3 and C2H6
O PH3, (CH3)3Au, and (CH3) Au

Astable electron arrangement for an atom is one that does not easily change. how is this arrangement arrived at? a. valence electrons are transferred or shared to create a full outer shell of electrons. b. valence electrons are discarded into space to create a full outer shell of electrons. c. protons (positive charge) pair with valence electrons (negative charge) to create a strong bond. d. outer shells with valence electrons are transferred or shared.
