Which group or groups of atoms are the only atoms with f orbitals A. All atoms heavier than barium B. All atoms heavier than krypton C. All noble gases D. Lanthanides and actinides

All atoms heavier than barium

Explanation:

In the periodic table, elements are divided into blocks. We have the;

s- block elements

p- block elements

d- block elements

f- block elements

However, immediately after Barium, we now encounter elements that have f-orbitals. Barium possesses a fully filled d-orbital. Hence after it, we see elements with 4f and 5f orbitals called the Lanthanides and actinides. The elements following the lanthanide and actinide series possess completely filled f-orbitals as inner orbitals.

Hence elements heavier than barium all possess f-orbitals.

convalent bond :

is a chemical bond formed by the sharing of electron between 2 atoms.

it is the direct chemical bond between 2 atoms.

in bond formation atoms are involved here.

electrovalent bond:

is a chemical bond defined as electroststic attraction between 2 atoms.

it is the electrostatic attraction between 2 atoms.

in bond formation, ions are involved here.

hope it

and ur welcm

the atomic number will stay the same no matter how many electrons it has, so it doesn’t decrease nor increase. it’ll only change with a different number of protons
