What is the total number of valence electrons in the dot structure of cf4? explain how you determined this answer. what is the name of the 3-dimensional shape this molecule forms? (you may figure this out on scrap paper and just write the correct answer)

atomic number of carbon is 6

electronic configuration of carbon is 1s²2s²2p²

orbital diagram of carbon is as shown here in the image.

acid rain does not usually kill trees directly. instead, it is more likely to weaken the trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the nutrients available to them, or poisoning them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil. the main atmospheric pollutants that affect trees are nitrates and sulphates.
