The most stable atoms/ions have 8 electrons in their outermost shell.
Hydrogen is an atom that does not need 8 electrons in its outer energy level to be stable. Hydrogen only needs 2 electrons to fill its outer energy level.
They share their valence electrons
Stable.
All the noble gases Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon and Radon have a stable octet of electrons in their outer energy level.
Most atoms are stable when they have a full outer energy level, which typically consists of 8 electrons. This is known as the octet rule. However, some smaller atoms, such as hydrogen and helium, are stable with only 2 electrons in their outer energy level.
Noble gas
2.
The noble gases is the most stable group of elements. They have their outer electron energy levels full, but the number of electrons vary according to which noble gas it is. They are group 18 on the periodic table.
8 electrons
Just one. To become stable, it needs eight electrons; a full outer shell.
it is called complete or completely stable
Group 8
