most metals do not follow the octet rule. when an atom has access to the D orbitals it usually follows the 18-electron rule (transition metals). non transition or F block elements usually contain a d orbital (when present) that is below the s and p orbitals in energy and do not usually use D electrons in bonding.

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
Do Cu plus and Cu2 plus plus violate the octet rule?
The octet rule does not apply to transition metals.
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).
How does calcium obey the octet rule when reating to form compounds?
because it does
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 do metals obey the Lewis octet rule?
The elements can be described by dot structure. Metals combine with other elements to make its octet complete.
Will any of the chlorine oxides obey the octet rule?
No chlorine oxides will obey the octet rule.
Does AmH3 obeys the octect rule?
No, Transition metals do not obey the octet rule in simple compounds , Am is an 'f' block transition metal.
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
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
Do Cu plus and Cu2 plus plus violate the octet rule?
The octet rule does not apply to transition metals.
How does calcium obey the octet rule when reating to form compounds?
because it does
How does sodium obey the octet rule when reacting to form compounds?
Yes
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).
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.
