Does BeH2 violate the octet rule?

The octet rule only applies to elements that are heavy enough to have reached the second shell of electrons. In the first shell, the octet rule does not apply because the first shell is completed with only two electrons, not eight. So no, the octet rule does not apply to beryllium hydride.

be stable because the first shell is filled with electrons, providing it with a stable configuration. The second shell having 3 electrons will also fulfill the octet rule, making the atom more stable.


Why elements and all compound exist as molecules?

Elements can exist as molecules when they combine with other elements to form compounds due to the sharing or transfer of electrons, creating stable structures. These molecules are held together by chemical bonds, which can be covalent, ionic, or metallic, depending on the types of elements involved. The formation of molecules allows the elements to achieve a more stable configuration, following the octet rule and minimizing their energy state.
