The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given substances has a layered arrangement, we can analyze the structures of the compounds mentioned. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Layered Arrangements**: - Layered arrangements in solids typically refer to structures where atoms or molecules are organized in distinct layers. Common examples include certain ionic compounds and layered materials like graphite. 2. **Identifying Common Structures**: - Two common types of close packing arrangements are: - **Hexagonal Close Packing (HCP)**: Atoms are arranged in a hexagonal pattern, with layers stacked in an ABAB... sequence. - **Cubic Close Packing (CCP)**: Atoms are arranged in a cubic pattern, with layers stacked in an ABCABC... sequence. 3. **Analyzing the Given Compounds**: - The question implies that we need to identify a compound that exhibits a layered structure. One example provided in the transcript is **CdCl2 (Cadmium Chloride)**. 4. **Structure of CdCl2**: - Cadmium chloride has a layered structure where cadmium ions and chloride ions are arranged in alternating layers. This layered arrangement is characteristic of many ionic compounds, allowing for easy cleavage along the layers. 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, **CdCl2** is an example of a compound that has a layered arrangement. ### Final Answer: **CdCl2 (Cadmium Chloride) has a layered arrangement.** ---
