most metals do not follow the octet rule. when an atom has access to the D orbitals it usually follows the 18-electron rule (transition metals). non transition or F block elements usually contain a d orbital (when present) that is below the s and p orbitals in energy and do not usually use D electrons in bonding.
yes PCl3 obey octet rule there are 5 electrons in the valence shell of phosphorous it need 3 electron to complete its octet so it form bond with 3 chlorine after bond formation there are 8 electron in its octet it obey octet rule
The octet rule does not apply to transition metals.
No it is not fully obeying the octet rule. Boron has only 6 electrons (3 own + 3 from each F atom), lacking two for the octet. Fluorine is 3x satisfied, each with 8 electrons (each has 7 own plus 1 from boron).
because it does
The oxygen atoms in the ion do obey the octet rule. The phosphorus atom has more than eight electrons in its valence shell. It is because of the existence of vacant 3d orbitals.
The elements can be described by dot structure. Metals combine with other elements to make its octet complete.
No chlorine oxides will obey the octet rule.
No, Transition metals do not obey the octet rule in simple compounds , Am is an 'f' block transition metal.
Hydrogen does not obey the octet rule. Boron does not always obey the octet rule and in fact forms Lewis acids such as BF3 which only has 6 electrons.

I know for sure BBr# & PF5 do not obey the octet rule, but i can't remember the rule of isotopes so I can't say for sure whether or not CO3 -2 obeys it or not.
