Can a Neutral unbonded atom complete valence octet?

if it is a noble gas it already has an octet, otherwise, it would need to gain or use electrons to complete an octet and would no longer be neutral or unbounded.


What family contains a full octet of valence electrons?

This is the family of noble gases (group 18).


Does Phosphorus have a complete outer shell?

No, it doesn't have a complete octet. Phosphorous is in group 5A, meaning it has 5 valence electrons (5 electrons on its outest shell).

How many valence electrons does Sulfur?

there are 6 electrons in valence shell of sulphur so it accepts two electrons to complete the octet (8 electrons in last shell) so its valency in ionic compounds is always - 2.

How do you form ionic bonds between lithium and nitrogen?

Li3N because Lithium will give 3 electrons to complete Nitrogen's octet as N has 5 electrons in it's valence shell and needs 3 more to complete it's octet.
