Answer
- Protium [], Deuterium [], Tritium []
- Sodium [e = p = 11, n = 12] and Chlorine [e = p = 17, n = 18]
- The valency is 3 positive. Electronic configuration = 2, 8, 3. Therefore, the element tends to lose 3 electrons and gain stable octet configuration.
- K shell.
- Noble gases [He, Ne, Ar etc.]
