Yes. Both O-F bonds are single covalent, so all three atoms can claim 8 electrons.

∙ 10y agoNo, IF5 does not obey the octet rule. I has more than 8 valence electrons, so it has an expanded octet.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoNo, it is the extension of octet rule due to involvement of 'd' orbitals of Phosphorus.

∙ 10y agoSi has four valence electrons and fluorine has seven.
After forming four Si-F bonds, all atoms will get eight valence electrons and this compound follows the octet rule.

Does PCl2F3 follow the octet rule?
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
How does calcium obey the octet rule when reating to form compounds?
because it does
Does BeF2 obey the octet rule?
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).
Does PO4 negative three charge 3 obey the octet rule?
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.
How does sodium obey the octet rule when reacting to form products?
When sodium loses its single valence electron, it achieves the noble gas configuration of neon, which is an octet.
Will any of the chlorine oxides obey the octet rule?
No chlorine oxides will obey the octet rule.
What atoms dont always obey the octet rule?
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.
In which bonding patterns does X obey the octet rule?
no it does not follow octet rule

What do not obey the octet rule cs2 ci4 no3 po43 sci4?
H and I SCl4 ICl3 SeCI4 F2CCF2
Which obeys the octet rule PF5 Cs2 BBr3 CO3 2?
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.
Which of the atoms below dont always obey the octet rule?
H and l
Which of the atoms don't always obey the octet rule H O Br?
Chlorine Cl : it can have a higher valence (ClO2, HClO3) than predicted by the octet rule. Hydrogen H and oxygen O cannot escape the octet rule.
How do covalent compounds obey the octet rule?
No. Some molecules, such as boron triflouride (BF3) and phosphorus pendachloride (PCl5) are octect violators.
