No but apples do!
It is one of many, many exceptions to the octet rule. Hydrogen does NOT require 8 electrons.
BCl3 and BEH2 obey the octet rule because Boron and Beryllium are exceptions to the octet rule and can have stable electron configurations with less than 8 electrons. Cl3CF, NO, and SbF5 do not obey the octet rule because they have incomplete or expanded valence shells.
Some elements that are known to violate the octet rule are: Hydrogen, Helium and Lithium (two electrons) Aluminum and Boron (less than octet but will form an octet if possible), Period 3 elements with p orbitals (more than an octet using empty d orbitals), noble gas compounds (more than an octet), and elements like nitrogen with an odd number of electrons (form free radicals when octets are not possible).
Az important rule: any octet has to have eight parts, otherwise it is not an octet.
Boron typically forms compounds with only 6 electrons in its outer shell. Phosphorus can exceed the octet rule and accommodate more than 8 electrons due to the availability of d orbitals. Sulfur can have more than 8 electrons around it in certain compounds, such as sulfite and sulfate ions.
Yes. Hydrogen follows the duet rule, and boron and a few other elements are exceptions. Also, the noble gases can have expanded valence levels with more than eight electrons, though they only bond under certain conditions.
Octet rule and 18-electron rule.
no it does not follow octet rule
There are several - the most notable being H+, H-, and Li+.
No chlorine oxides will obey the octet rule.
NH3 is not an exception to the octet rule. Nitrogen (N) in NH3 has a total of 8 valence electrons (5 from nitrogen and 3 from hydrogen), fulfilling the octet rule. Nitrogen has 3 bonded pairs and 1 lone pair of electrons, following the octet rule.
Boron and fluorine in the trivalent boron compound BF3 have only 6 electrons in the valence shell.Oxygen and nitrogen in nitric oxide, NO, contain one or more atoms which have an odd number (one UNpaired '.' ) of electrons. Lewis dot structure |N.=O
