What else can I help you with?
What atoms dont always obey the octet rule?
Atoms in the third period or beyond (period 3 and below) can exceed the octet rule due to the availability of d orbitals for expanded valence shells. Examples include sulfur, phosphorus, chlorine, and others in the third row and beyond in the periodic table. Additionally, atoms with an odd number of valence electrons, such as nitrogen and radicals, may also not follow the octet rule.
Did the atoms have a nucleus that always remains the same?
no they dont cause they just dont.
Does AlCl3 follow octet rule?
No, AlCl3 does not follow the octet rule. Aluminum typically forms compounds where it only has 6 electrons in its outer shell, such as in AlCl3 where it forms 3 bonds with chlorine atoms.
Why dont two potassium atoms form a covalent bond?
Potassium atoms do not typically form covalent bonds with each other because they are highly electropositive and prefer to lose an electron to achieve a stable octet configuration. This results in the formation of ionic bonds with other atoms that can accept the electron, rather than sharing electrons in a covalent bond.
Does BCl3 violate the octet rule?
Yes the sulfur needs to have two more electrons to fill the octet, and chlorine only needs one. So there are two chlorines to give sulfur one electron. The whole molecule is covalently bonded so the electrons are shared between the chlorines and the sulfur so that both the elements octets are filled.
A sulfur atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell how many covalent bonds is it likely to form with other atoms?
i dont no your level of chemistry, but if you know about orbital you will understand. sulfur is able to disobey the octect rule to form up to 6 bonds tis is due to the presence of d orbital. eg. SF6
How are atoms of hydrogen different from atoms of helium?
i dont know blaa
What are things you touch?
You dont touch anything because of atoms Atoms have trouble touching if they touch they explode They can share electrons though but they dont touch
Why do atoms form molecules?
molecules are more stable than the atoms,because the noble gas configuration is more stable. atoms in order to get the noble gas configuration they gain or lose the electron(s). by this they form molecules.
How many atoms covalent bonding have?
nah they dont >>>>>>
Why does your breath always stink?
For your answer, see the link below. because they dont brush with toothpaste twice a day especially when they go to sleep or they eat too much
What do noble gas configurations have in common?
the dont have many atoms
